"Toastmasters is like anything else worth our time in life. You will get more out of it if you put time into it. Make it as much of a priority as the rest of your work, and you will gain so much!"

- Tina Fowler, member since August 2008

"Every speech teaches me something new and it's great to see people grow speech after speech (including myself). I love how it is a completely friendly/safe environment and the people in the club are so supportive. I can go on and on about the benefits..."

- Joanna Lamore, member since February 2007

About Techmasters

Techmasters was founded and chartered as a local club of Toastmasters International in December 1998. The goal of the club is to improve the speaking and leadership skills of the members through self-paced practice and constructive evaluation. Techmasters was so named because most of the original members were affiliated with the Schwab Technology group.

Club members come from many different backgrounds, membership is not restricted, and guests are always welcome. Techmasters meets every Tuesday from 12:10 to 1:00 p.m., except on holidays, in the Charles Schwab building at 211 Main Street/9th Floor/Spy Room, in San Francisco’s financial district.

Since 1924, Toastmasters International has helped millions of men and women become more confident in front of an audience. The network of clubs and their learn-by-doing program are sure to help you become a better speaker and leader. Why pay thousands of dollars for a seminar when you can join a Toastmasters club for a fraction of the cost and have fun in the process?

Toastmasters will give you the skills and confidence you need to effectively express yourself in any situation. Whether you are a professional, student, stay-at-home parent or retiree, Toastmasters is the most efficient, enjoyable and affordable way of gaining great communication skills. By learning to effectively formulate and express your ideas, you open an entirely new world of possibilities. You’ll be more persuasive and confident when giving presentations, and you’ll improve your one-on-one dealings with others.

You won’t regret it. Toastmasters currently has more than 200,000 members in 80 countries. Our club is just one of the more than 10,000 clubs located around the world.
