About Us

UofT Toastmasters is a public speaking and leadership development club. We cultivate a supportive environment where both beginners and experienced speakers can thrive. Founded in 2004 as an engineering student club, UofT Toastmasters has since expanded to include both students and professionals. Over the years, we've helped hundreds of students grow into incredible speakers and live as strong leaders. We want to help you realize your full potential as well! Associated with Toastmasters International, we invite everyone to join us at our regular meetings as guests or members.

PRESIDENT

What's up y'all! I'm an ECE 2T4 + PEY, and I am so thrilled to be your president this term. My favourite part about the club is that it gives me a creative outlet and a way for me to challenge myself and get better at something. In my (limited) free time, I like to do the crossword.
