​​Many members of Toastmasters face with difficulties with grabbing of attention in the begging of the speech. #tm_tips from Aizhan Zhumabayeva will help you to solve this problem✊🏼

Here are 3 quick methods that will help you to grab the attention:

1️⃣ Open your speech asking a question. Ask simple yes/no questions so that audience can raise hands and get involved.
2️⃣ Use some object: a book, a chair, etc. People will be curious about it and start listening.
3️⃣ Start with well known facts or share facts about you. For example: I am vegetarian, global warming is killing the Earth.

On the photo below winner of Toastmasters International Speech contest 2014 - Dananjaya Hettiarachchi uses rose to grab the attention 🌹

Try at least one of the methods and see how useful it can be!🙌🏼

What does President do at his free time? Plans trips, contests and writes Bible!😱

​​People say that if you don’t look into a listeners you seem a liar. 😬
To make your speech trustworthy read 🆕 #tm_tips from Aizhan Zhumabayeva

Ohhh… I remember first few minutes in my speech: the ground goes under the feet, and, Oh God, do I still have to look at these people? Impossible! I am so nervous!😲

Now I know the secret and I will share it with you:
1️⃣Before you speak, pause and connection with distinct listeners. It means that you should not just look into the crowd but see each and every person 🧐
 2️⃣Maintain eye contact with individuals for 3 to 5 seconds. This is the same practice you naturally follow when engaging in normal one-on-one conversation.  Any longer and you make the other person feel uncomfortable.  Any shorter and you look less than trustworthy⏱
3️⃣ Don’t look into listener’s eyes if he/she isn’t looking and listening at you. This is just wais of time, hold your attention only on those who seem interested in you 👀

Remember to make contact with the audience establish eye contact firstly!🙌🏼

​​❗️ #tm_news alert ❗️

In August 2017, the Board of Directors voted to increase dues for all members of undistricted clubs. From October 1, 2018, all members will now pay international dues of $45 USD every six months. This dues increase will go directly toward furthering the mission of Toastmasters International.

Districts receive 25% of the dues for each membership in the district. For undistricted clubs, 25% of international dues now will be placed in a reserve account. The purpose of this account is to provide starter funds to support new and developing markets, allow for area director visits, conferences and more.

​​Presentation is one of the tools of quialified toastmaster. If you still struggle with making good presentation, here are #tm_tips for effective slide presentations:

1️⃣ Don’t overload your slides.
Don’t use more than 3 colors, 2 fonts and 1 theme in one presentation. 2-3 sentences in one slide are enough.

2️⃣ Use quotes, stories and anecdotes. They will help reinforce your message and entertain the audience.

3️⃣ Use cool pictures. One good illustration can save your 100 words of description.

Good luck with your next presentation!

Many people say that Toastmasters changed their lives. Our fellow friend Valeriya Nabatova told us how one event influenced her vision of Toastmasters. 🆕🔝
