Welcome to Symposium Toastmasters! Based out of Carnegie Mellon University, we're a group of professionals and students with the common goal of becoming the best speakers we can be.
Did you ever wish you could stand in front of people and talk to them without feeling like a deer in the headlights? Since 1924, Toastmasters International has helped millions of men and women become more confident in speaking in front of an audience. Through practice and the supportive advice of other Toastmasters, you'll overcome the hurdles that often prevent people from expressing themselves effectively. Toastmasters provides a step-by-step program to help build your abilities so that you can express yourself in any situation, be it a presentation, an interview, a meeting, or even just regular conversation.
Dont worry! Everyone in Toastmasters was once at the level you are now. The environment is friendly and supportive, and the self-paced program allows you to build confidence with each speaking assignment. Each time you give a prepared speech, an evaluator will point out strengths and suggest improvements. At first youll be applauded for your effort; later youll be applauded for your skill.
Toastmasters features:
- Constructive evaluation
- Experienced advice
- "The Toastmaster" Magazine for members
- A 10-step core skill-building program
- Seminars and competitions
- A Toastmasters community of over 260,000 worldwide
Our club is just one of Toastmasters International's clubs worldwide. The nonprofit organization now has nearly 260,000 members in over 12,500 clubs in 113 countries, offering a proven and enjoyable! way to practice and hone communication and leadership skills.
Symposium Toastmasters meets weekly on Wednesday evenings at 6:00-7:30 in Room A202 in the basement of Hamburg Hall at Carnegie Mellon University, Forbes Avenue, Pittsburgh.
