1. What is the Speaker?

The (prepared) speaker role is the cornerstone of improving members' skills in public speaking. The primary purpose for many people coming to Toastmasters is learning how to present in front of an audience. All speeches at the club are expected to be project-based speeches, which helps both the speaker and the club progress toward their goals.

Of course, the primary benefits of the speaker role are to increase your confidence and skill with public speaking.
