- While it has its pros and cons, if you are someone who is looking to improve their public speaking regardless of the field you’re in, Toastmasters is definitely one of the best places to start off your public speaking journey, not only cause of the supportive environment, the vast network and the opportunities it offers but also because of its Do-It-Yourself learning method. This means that if you put in the work, you will get the result.

A sharp analysis of Toastmasters. I recently joined my local club and I am 100% satisfied where I am. I also agree on your con side of masters. I will work on my speaking journey not just for next step ladder, but my self improvement of communication.
More power to you! 👊🏻
This guy is spot on. I was involved with Toastmasters many years ago. I had a great time. A good social experience and I did become a more effective speaker (although, no false modesty, I was already good before I started). I'd say everything he said in the video was true of my experience, both pros, cons, and caveats. One point that cannot be overemphasised, is that every club is different. If you find one that doesn't feel right and isn't giving you a good experience, you can look for another. Go as a guest to at least 4 or 5 clubs in your area. Go back a second time to the ones that you liked. Add new ones to fill the spots you dropped. After experiencing several clubs a couple of times, pick one that is comfortable.
It is not often you can stand up, make a fool of yourself and get help for doing so! You will be among newcomers, and seasoned speakers. They will be delighted to share their knowledge and answer any questions. The best thing is you can attend a couple of meetings as a guest to get a feeling for whether it is for you.
Great.. it's really helpful for someone like me who is considering joining the club. Thanks a lot.
Glad it helped :)
Thank you so much, this video was extremely helpful and confirmed that I made the right decision to join Toastmasters. I agree with your points on what to pay attention to during my time in the club. Also focus on the quality of speeches, rather than the quantity.
Great!
Being a toastmaster i absolutely agree with all your points and your guidance through all your videos for an effective communication has been helping me a lot to improve myself day by day thanks for such a crystal clear explanations.
Glad you are finding these videos useful!
I just want to get over my fear of public speaking. Looks like there is plenty of other aspects that are focused on.

toastmaster is a good place to join and it's a safe place to fail because no one will judge you
You don't need to sign your comment lol
Bang on! Very useful analysis. Thank you Hrideep.
Welcome!
I thought of every reason to join a TM club except for building a network doh!😄 Thanks for pointing that out.
Happy to help!
The last item killed the whole point of the video for me.
Basically - "public speaking is pointless, since if people are interested in your message, they'll listen regardless of how you deliver it. And vice versa, if people are not interested, technicalities of public speaking don't matter". Thanks bruh.
You can use your technicalities to become a engaging public speaker and grab the interest of the audience even if your idea is descent.
The key message/point to this excellent video runs from 4:55 to 6:00
I went to a Toastmaster in the USA, and 99% of the people were Indians. Did the Indians created Toastmasters, or why do they love toastmasters that much?
No, the Indians did not create Toastmasters. It was founded in the USA by Ralph Smedley.
You may have just chanced upon a club built by Indians for Indians. Just look around for other clubs. Certain clubs are built on the common traits of members (like the club with Indians) while many clubs are open to anyone. We have a club here that's mostly Chinese members. Honestly I don't think they even have any non-Chinese, but TI doesn't allow explicit restriction. It just implicitly happens because a non-Chinese may not feel comfortable being a member in a club with predominantly Chinese members. The Indian club could be a similar situation. But there are so many other clubs that aren't like that, and are open to anyone. My own club is like that, we have a wide mix of people. Our common trait is just the love for Toastmasters. Lol
I decided to join toastmasters, but I’m not able to join any club, I’ve been sending join requests for several clubs through email but there’s no response! So it would be helpful for me to give me tips about finding a club and becoming a member..
where are you from?
Wonderful video. Added to my knowledge.
Glad it was helpful!
Your analysis is absolutely correct.
Thanks!
Can I join toastmaster to improve my english speaking and communication?
As I am from a Bengali Medium borad till my college so I am very week in English and grammar too
Can I join too ?
Or is it for a bit more advanced for a person like me who is noob now ?
I would say Yes, I have known people who have done exactly that - but it's a bit try it and see too.
Why don't you go along to your local group, and assess if it's for you?
Wishing you good luck. 👍
Great review! Thank you. 👍
My pleasure!
I don't know English well i studied in hindi medium should i join
It should be alright if you join, but starting from the basics would be a better decision!
good one. Thnk u
How much does it cost?
You will have to check their website!
Is 19 years tooo old for toastmasters or public speaking i mean can we still reach a good level if we start at that age🙂
I started at around the same age. Go for it!
@@franticallyspeaking thank you so much
Minimum age is 18 years old.
Is there any age restriction ?? As I am 18 can I join??
If you are 18+, you can join
Is there any online toastmasters
Yes Definitely, you will find many online clubs in Toastmasters!
Will u be able to share some online toastmasters
Can I join toast masters in age of 16 ?
Toastmasters is usually for 18+. However, there are certain colleges with their own TM clubs that can be explored
Is it free?
Nope, but you can attend as a free guest for a limited number of sessions
Really Amizing
Thank you
But their fees are too high
If you aren't earning a lot, yes it can feel high. Also, they collect a one-time fee, and they collect 6 months in advance. These two things I wish they would do away with these, and make it a monthly recurring subscription instead. It could cost exactly the same, but feel way more affordable. The issue is they are still stuck in archaic financial systems and their upgrades are slow. (Do you know, you can still paper-mail your credit card info or check to Toastmasters International in a renewal form, and wait a few weeks for your membership to be renewed once they get their postal mail delivered? Yeah LOL...) Only just last year did they finally introduce the ability for members to pay online for themselves, which is very very late compared to other online services that had similar systems over a decade or two. Before this, they had to give the money to a club officer who then had to charge his/her own card for all the renewing members. They still don't have any recurring subscription option.
Anyway Toastmasters is a great platform despite its pros and cons. I know TI is actively improving their services over time, so all these could potentially change in a few years.
How much?
@@akpishere 1600 for one time which is registration fees and 6600 for six months
@@shreya2singh5 oh okay thanks, I have no idea how toastmaster works, Can please tell me briefly how things work there, I mean tasks, routine, schedule etc
@@akpishere no idea
I congratulate you for your Chutzpa! With your accent? Are you aware of the damage you do? You ripped off your TM experience, then you flatter them, then you criticize them, then you plug your product? Please go to a speech teacher, get rid of your accent, then, when you no longer sound like Peter Sellers doing his Indian Accent, begin to teach. You are off the tracks, friend.
Really?! Imho the speaker was brilliant and gave the most insightful treatise on Toastmasters(TI) I have ever heard. Accents come in all forms and TI has absolutely no program on affecting accents whatsoever. The absolute focus is on Communication, I repeat C-O-M-M-U-N-I-C-A-T-I-O-N and this presentor did an excellent job. As for you Mr Pearse, the kindest thing I can say about you is that you have your head so far up your backside it is coming out of your mouth. You should get therapy for your racist xenophobic attitude. Do you know how much damage you do lugging around this baggage through life? With a bit of luck no one pays any attention to what you say. But God help those who have any respect for you. You need to reflect deeply and meditate on your state of atitude and way of thinking. It is wrong, if I may bluntly tell you. But kudos for saying this out because it takes some boldness to say what you think. Misguided maybe ... but bold all the same and I have to thank you because it gives us a forum to challenge it which hopefully helps those who think the same but keep it to themselves.
FFS 😂. Hes.. Indian..not someone English speaking Indian. I've been a member for 11 years and what he said is 👍👏Spot on.
There's nothing wrong with his accent. In fact, he has one of the most neutral English accents I've heard in Indian TH-camrs in a long time. You're just bitter that he had some cons to share about Toastmasters. So you're making a personal attack. That's petty.
Today My first Day Joining Toastmaster club
Lovely
