Special speech evaluation session on May 30th, 2010

The Atsugi-Zama Toastmasters club held a special Evalu-a-thon meeting on May 30th, 2010. 15 club members and 3 guests attended the meeting.



In this special "Evalu-a-thon" meeting, five speakers gave speeches:
  • TM Fukuda: "The Origin of Japanese Culture" (Project #5, Advanced Manual);
  • TM Takayanagi: "Challenging New Things" (Project #5, Advanced Manual);
  • TM Ofori: "How Japanese Can Speak English Fluently" (Project #3, Public Relations Manual);
  • TM Lenglet: "The Ringmaster's Daughter" (Project #5, CC Manual);
  • TM Horioka: "What is Professional Learning?" (Project #3, CC Manual).
Each speaker was evaluated by six or more evaluators. Shortly after being evaluated, each speaker gave his/her speech a second time, taking into account the remarks of evaluators. Each speech was then evaluated a second time by the same evaluators. This was a very intensive session for both the speakers and the evaluators. All speakers were able to dramatically improve their speeches on the spot, given such a high quality feedback from many evaluators.

We would especially like to thank all our guests for participating as evaluators during this meeting, and for giving great comments to the speakers!
