Which club should I visit? It depends on the hours and time zones and days and size of the meeting and what you want to gain.
Singapore Online Dynamic. Fridays at 9.30- pm, Singapore time for two hours. This club has the most meetings, one every week. Also lots of opportunity for non-members who are visiting to speak impromptu in two minute table topics. It you join this club you get about 52 meetings a year for about 100 US dollars plus twenty or thirty dollars to sign up for a Pathway.
What are the Pathways? A series, a bit like a language or O level course. You do, a series of 16 speeches, starting with four minutes minimum about yourself. Most are 5 to 7 minute speeches.
The series ends with a longer speech of about 20 minutes, or a project such as creating a newsletter, with a speech about your challenges and successes. Most people who are interested in public speaking start with Presentation Pathway. I did this.
For my second pathway I chose Humour. If you are in management you might choose one of the management pathways.
You can see that with four meetings a month, you could finish the series in four months or less. In another club meeting once or twice a month, it would take much longer. Alternatively, you could do as I do, and belong to two or more clubs.
Which other clubs could you join?
