Toastmasters International to Lead Public Speaking Workshops for Adults and Teens

Public speaking is an invaluable life skill. If you've made a new year's resolution to overcome your fear of it, or to take your presentation skills to the next level, join a free workshop at Forsyth County Public Library this month!


Programs for Middle and High School Students

Whether applying for jobs or interviewing for college scholarships, being able to speak in public is a necessary - but often scary! - skill to master. Being a confident public speaker can help teens stand out from the crowd and the internationally renowned Toastmasters organization offers this workshop to a select group of middle and high school students at the Cumming and Post Road Libraries beginning this month.

Teens will practice speaking and listening skills in a positive environment and receive coaching from experienced speakers. By the end of the workshop, teens will be able to speak to groups or individuals with confidence and poise.
