TOASTMASTERS IN THE HAGUE:
In The Hague there are three English language TM clubs - Toastmasters of The Hague (TMOTH) consists of both expats and Dutch citizens who wish to improve their general communication skills/professional presentation skills as part of their professional development. The 2nd is The Hague University Toastmasters, for teachers & students that meet every Wednesday. The 3rd is Tír na nÓg (tir-na-nog) that meet on Tuesdays.
We all follow the international curriculum called Pathways, an online platform detailing the goals, and focus points of each speech, in order to build self-confidence to inform and inspire. You will gain leadership skills along the way. See the Facebook group Toastmasters District 59 for more about English & Dutch TM clubs.
WHEN + WHERE + WHAT?
Our TMOTH club comes together every 1st, and 3rd Thursday of the month. We host meetings, usually in Het Koorenhuis, Prinsegracht 27 The Hague, Room 1.05. For the latest information on location, and for signing up, please check the event-link here in Meetup.
Meetings start promptly at 19:45 (walk in/log in from 19:30) and finish at 21:30. They consist of planned and impromptu speeches to improve your presentation skills. We focus on stage presence, the clarity of your story, the connection with the audience and speech structure. Members are challenged to improve their listening and management skills by taking up meeting roles as time-keeper, word filler counter, grammarian (proper use of the English language), and speech evaluators (focusing on the delivery and fine details of the speech).

18:30-19:30 Workshop “Prepare your Tedex speech” by Irene Anggreeni
An experienced speaker Irene will give her Tedex speech and give a workshop about preparing your first workshop.
Come and get inspired!Irene’s speech is titled A Therapist/Engineer's Guide to Happiness: Upgrading Your Mental OS.
Having had different careers, first as a software engineer and as a dance/movement therapist, Irene presents a personal story woven in with actionable tools for upgrading how we operate daily (i.e. our mind's operating system). She uses a humorous approach and metaphors from the software world -- that's also what she likes to check if this approach works for the diverse audience.
You’ll get a chance to practice your evaluations skills as well. You will be asked to provide some feedback on the speech afterwards.After the workshop we will continue with our regular meeting starting from 19:45 till 21:45.
