16 Oct 2012 Meeting
At our last meeting, we had 3 new guests and 2 visiting Toastmasters (Choon Liang from Katong TMC and Siao Yen from Toa Payoh South) and 6 members at the meeting.

We had 3 prepared speakers (Heidi, Vanessa & Clifford), 4 table topic speeches (thanks Alvin for the topics) and a sharing by our dear mentor Christina on organising your speech.




Here's Siao Yen giving her speech evaluation:


Would also like to thank our first timers for a wonderful job done:
  • Vicky as SAA
  • Kendra as Timekeeper

Thanks to Lydia for being our TMD, project evaluator and refreshments organiser.
At our next meeting (6 Nov), you will pick up more tips to make you a more powerful, poised and polished speaker. So do remember to join us at our next meeting.


Written by Kelvin,
President

3 October 2017 - Mid Autumn Festival

Image
A warm welcome to fellow members and guests who joined us in our meeting in our warm comfy club on Tuesday, 3 October! There was an amazing turn out this meeting, which filled our session with vibrant stories and interesting tales. In celebration of Mid-Autumn Festival which was the next day, VPE Wen Zhong kick started our meeting sparked off with an ice breaker session, sharing about what we loved most about Mid-Autumn Festival. Most of us expressed our love and craving for the delicious delicacy – moon cakes, some of us relished in nostalgia, sharing about childhood memories of lantern and playing, and few of us indicated our lack of enthusiasm for the festival. Nevertheless, the ball was rolling, the meeting was on.  We had 3 speakers who prepared speeches for the evening – VPM Andy Sitoh with Project 9 (Persuade with Power) , Club President Vincent Chua, CC, CL with Dynamic Leadership Pathway L2P2 (Leadership Styles) as well as visiting toastmaster, Michelle Tan, C...

Energetic evening (16 April 2013)

Image
There were people from all walks of life in tonight’s chapter meeting; there were 18 people who packed into our club room, with a good mix of distinguished Toastmasters from other clubs, guests with zero experience at a Toastmasters meeting as well as our very own members (and ex-member Rick!) To start the ball rolling for tonight’s meeting, the prepared speeches were delivered by the ever-animated Pei Zhi , the affable Mike as well as Stephen , from SIM Toastmasters Club. Next, we moved on to the perennial favourite at the club: Table Topics. The Table Topics Master for tonight was Vanessa , whose questions were based on events happening in Korea. Our guests who were attending a Toastmasters meeting for the very first time (from left to right: Lee Guan, Robin, and Kai Feng (extreme right), and not forgetting Stephen , who had also participated in the prepared speech section) gamely took up the challenge to speak and they did so with great aplomb!   ...

15 Aug 2017 (Tuesday) - Dealing with Judgement

Image
You might be wondering, what is going on with the title "Dealing with Judgement". The theme for our recent chapter meeting was on Evaluation. What is so special about evaluation? Henry Cloud mentioned "The natural response to evaluation is to feel judged. We have to mature to a place where we respond to it with gratitude, and love feedback." When we receive evaluation, or feedback, do we become defensive and ignore other's opinion? Or do we welcome them to improve ourselves? The chapter meeting was called to order at 7.15pm. Christina opened it up with an ice-breaker + table-topic spun together to get everyone comfortable. Within the first five minutes we had a variety of topics we spoke about! After which, our Club President, Vincent Chua, proceeded on with his opening address. The full team in action! That night, we had three speakers - Suroj on Project 3 (Get to the Point), Andy on Project 7 (Research your Topic) and Wai Kay on Project 9 (Persuade w...
