Hi there! Do you just drop by accidentally or are you looking for fun with a touch of personal growth and development???
In either case, you have come to the right place! Macau Toastmasters Club provides a comfortable and supportive environment for members to develop their communication and leadership skills. As part of the global organization Toastmasters International, our members strive to learn and grow together. Mind you, we are not a language center. We do have native speakers who are English teachers, but there is no lecture during our meetings. Rather, we learn by observing others, active participation, peer evaluation and feedback.
Talking is cheap. Why don’t you come to our regular meetings and see for yourself?
