Today we had an induction ceremony for 2 new members!
And we also had 4 guests, and 2 guests decided to join our club!
It was really a great event for us!
One of our former club members also visited us, and she talked about what's been going on lately.
In Yokohama Ocean Toastmasters Club, all members learn English / Japanese communication from each other.

今日は2名の新会員の入会式。4名の方のゲスト,さらにそのうち2名から入会宣言をいただくというとても嬉しい会になりました!!
1st half is Japanese session. TM K.S. took a role of today's Toastmasters of the morning. As he is always a trustworthy member, he well prepared in advance and greatly facilitatied today's meeting too. The other helpers also constibuted to the fruitful meeting. Great job, all!
An induction ceremony was held first for two new members. As TM C.B. and TM P officially became our members, we are grateful to have them. Let's grow together. Let's step forward together.
There are multiple techniques to get audience attention effectively, and the technique I was impressed today was "Visual aids". Visual aid such as PPT is an effective tool to make audiences remember. TM K.S, TM J.I, and TM K.E. used one, respectively, for Opening, Word of the morning "Trust" and 『出会い』. More than that, TM K.S. sung a disney song during the opening, which is the first time I saw :) Really impressive.
1st speech is "My communication style" by TM K.S. The evaluator is TM Y.K. He suggested that an actual example to support her communication style could make it a little more convincing.
2nd speech is "An Unexpected Ally" by TM K.M. The evaluater is TM S.A. He provided an constructive suggestion that adding a strong key message could make the speech more vivid.
TT questions are based on the prepared speeches.
What is your personal character when analyzing yourself?
What is your recent decision-making episode?
