Hi Gwyneth
Great to hear from you and fantastic to read such an endorsement for Speakers Clubs.
I think you’ve said it all and like you I like to think that I’m putting something back into an activity that has changed my life.

See you soon – Keith

hi
Joining a Speakers Club was the best thing I ever did. It has given me confidence in many areas of my life, not just speaking. Now, as National President of the ASC I feel I have the chance to put something back into the greatest organisation in the world. I also started a speakers club and to see people grow from very timid people into eloquent, confident speakers is a wonderful feeling. I hope lots of people reading this message will be able to share the experience I have had. If there isnt a club near you, just let us know and we will help you to start one.
Well done with this site, Keith.

Welcome Michael
Sounds like a great idea “starting a Public Speaking Club” for your students.

First, thank you for stopping by my blog. Had you not stopped by I would not have found this article (bookmarked). I have been considering starting a public speaking club for my students, but I did not know how to get started. This information is more helpful than you know. Thank you, especially for the club-starting tips.

Hi Roy
You’ve hit the nail on the head
“the ability of ordinary people… to be able to speak in front of people”
That’s what Speakers Clubs are all about and that’s why I’m so passionate about them.
BTW – missed you at the Sans Souci AGM.

One of the things that I like about Speakers Club is the ability of ordinary people, not professionals, to be able to speak in front of people with a little encouragement and advice and really excel in their own achievements. Something that they may have thought they could never do.

Hi Lucy
i think that school is the place where most of us develop a dislike of Public Speaking.
Thanks for visiting.

Thanks very much for your generous comments Keith. I don’t think so ref. going any further though! It has been an honour and a fulfilling year as Club President but I will be happy to be a club member without office again; I might actually have some time to write and deliver some speeches and will look forward to your tips to help me!

Best wishes,
Carol.

Hi Zafar
Brilliant video – you smoothy!
You look confident and you have all the facts and figures at your fingertips.
The “Digbeth Court” venture sounds fantastic.
I’m sure it will be a great success.
BTW – you look better looking in the video than I remember you. LOL
