Welcome to Toastmasters 90210
We empower individuals to become more effective communicators, listeners and leaders.
Communicate
Delivering prepared speeches and extemporaneous Table Topics are opportunities to learn valuable communication skills that may be used in the workplace and throughout all walks of life.
Listen
Toastmasters is also about listening: From General Evaluator to Word Master to Grammarian, the numerous supporting roles in Toastmasters meetings are meant to develop listening skills.
Lead
Toastmasters empowers you to grow in leadership. From running a weekly meeting to taking a role on the club’s Executive Committee to preparing a member for a TED Talk, Toastmasters 90210 has a reputation for shaping leaders.
We provide a supportive and positive learning experience where members are empowered to develop communication, listening & leadership skills, resulting in greater self-confidence and personal growth.
