Conquer Fear of Speaking at Farmington Area Toastmasters Groups
If one of your goals for 2013 is to polish your public speaking skills, two local groups can help.
Anxiety about public speaking ranks among the most common fears, but if you're looking to conquer it, several local Toastmasters groups offer training that can help.
One club meets at the Western Wayne Oakland County Association of Realtors on Wednesdays, 9 a.m. The video featured with this article was recorded at a Windbaggers Toastmasters Club meeting; that group meets Thursdays, 6:30 p.m., except the first Thursday of each month. For more information about local clubs, visit the Toastmasters website.
