Our first meeting of the month was led by our VP of Education, Youngjun. Today’s meeting theme was Online Schooling. He was supported by our Timer – Scott, Grammarian – Petar, and Table Topics Master – Mari. The word of the day synched with our theme: Curriculum. Although this was Young’s 2nd time as Toastmaster, he led the meeting masterfully, navigating the last minute changes skillfully and even incorporating the word of the day!
We had three speakers present to advance their skills in the curriculum of public speaking. Polina was our first speaker and presented What would kill us? for the second time with much improvement. Club president, Paula, gave us a skilled slide-show presentation for Project PR 2020. Much praise to Paula, Lara, and Steven for their contribution to Project PR. Our last speech for today’s meeting was given by WeiHu on what he’s learned about SpaceX.
Just like online schooling, we have adapted to meet online. During our Saturday online meeting, Polina taught us that humanity’s extinction rate is quite high. However we shouldn’t fear, WeiHu has us convinced that SpaceX will be our Hail Mary. Mars, here we come!
Congratulations to Sarah D. who was voted Best Table Topic! Special thanks to Sarah and Matt for joining this week! Remember: the early bird catches the worm. We’re online again next Saturday, December 19, 2020, at 7:30 AM. Happy learning!
Hi, I'm Mari. My public speaking isn't something to brag about, so I decided to challenge myself by joining SSTM. I am known for being a mad scientist who has a creative streak with some home cooking and kombucha brewing.
