Super duper uber meeting on 22th July

We have just finished our toastmasters meeting today. It was an exuberant evening ignited by exciting line of table topic and prepared speech speakers, evaluators and our energetic Madam General Evaluator, Grace Tan, ACB, CL.

KK Ng, CTM was our table topic master of the day. We have 5 speakers took part in the table topic session today. They are Dr Devi, DTM, Ailin, CC, Raja Mohan (guest), Karen Sze Tho, CC and Jeremy, TM. Dr Devi shared that in order to achieve our dream we need to think out of the box, Raja Mohan on the need to act on the dream to make it a reality, Ailin on seeing the dream within, Jeremy on how to plan to achieve our dream and lastly, Karen shared on living out our dream.

Today we have three speakers delivering their prepared speeches. Yvonne Leong, TM  and Seow Huey, TM delivered speech CC# 2: organize your speech.  Yvonne shared on her childhood story and how her mother guided her through and teaches her to be a good person whereas Seow Huey shared the impact of climate change and how to mitigate climate change and global warming. She reminds us that we do not inherit the earth from our ancestors but we borrow it from our children! The third speaker, Jean Ng, CC, CL delivered advanced manual speech: Project #1: speaking to inform. Her topic is on the science of happiness and the secret formula given by her is ask, believe and received!

Evaluators are important as they involve in accessing and evaluating speeches in order to assist fellow toastmasters to improve and develop good public speaking and communication skills.
