Toastmasters Club

Toastmasters will give you the skills and confidence you need to effectively express yourself in any situation. Whether you are a professional, student, stay-at-home parent or retiree, Toastmasters is the most efficient, enjoyable and affordable way of gaining great communication skills. By learning to effectively formulate and express your ideas, you open an entirely new world of possibilities. You’ll be more persuasive and confident when giving presentations, and you’ll improve your one-on-one dealings with others.

You won’t regret it. Toastmasters currently has more than 200,000 members in 80 countries. Our club is just one of the more than 10,000 clubs located around the world.

The Georgia Tech Chapter, Techmasters, meet every Thursday from 7:30-9:00 AM (even when classes are not in session). Faculty, staff, students, and outside community members are always welcome to visit! For membership meeting information, please see our membership information page.

We meet on the Georgia Institute of Technology campus, in the heart of thriving downtown Atlanta. Techmasters holds meetings in the Pettit Microelectronics Research Center (MiRC) building. Parking is available for $1 an hour in the visitor lot at the intersection of State Street and Ferst Drive. For more details and driving directions, see our directions page.

Don’t worry! Everyone in a Toastmasters club 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. And you’ll love the applause! Constructive evaluation is the heart of the Toastmasters program. Each time you give a prepared speech, an evaluator will point out strengths and suggest improvements. At first you’ll be applauded for your effort; later you’ll be applauded for your skill.
