12 March: Pre-contest meeting

Dan Smith, DTM — Fri, 06 Mar 2009 01:00:02 +0000

With the contest season about to being, this can feel like The Lull Before the Storm. Just before a storm hits, we can notice a period of relative calm; just before the excitement and thrills of a big day, we can experience a similar period of peacefulness.

To cope with this, we have:

Summiting Session: Dan Smith DTM – State, State, State
Speech: John C Ng CC – Thus Spoke Coach Wooden
Speech: Spike Gu ACB CL
Speech: Bill Wang ACB
TTM: Emily Minor CC ALS
IE: Delphy Chow ACS CL
Timer: Delphy Chow ACS CL

See you there.

Jeff Tan ATM-B will be leading CAT’s Summiting Session

How to make people sit up and take notice of your speech by having an outlandish and unusually extra long speech title that dares to be different, bold and breaks the rules of “how to give your speech a great title”, and of course, having a speech that’s really really captivating, useful and enriching, full of stories, anecdotes, metaphors, useful and practical information, and best of all – FUN, ENJOYABLE and MEMORABLE.

The next few weeks

Dan Smith, DTM — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 07:25:27 +0000

Congratulations to our Delphy Chow for achieving 3rd place at the recent Division Contest

We have just four meetings left for 2008:

13 November
27 November
11 December
18 December (brought forward a week for Christmas)

Each of these will have a great training session focused on an area of advanced speaking skills. Subjects like eye contact, introducing speakers (and yourself), using the stage and using outlines (especially in impromptu speaking) that will be useful and entertaining.

See you then.
