When You Are the Evaluator

Serving as an evaluator is an opportunity to practice leadership skills, including listening, critical thinking, providing feedback, and motivation. At first, it can be intimidating to provide feedback. Always remember that the most important benefit of Toastmasters for members is the honest, fair, and supportive evaluation of their presentations and leadership accomplishments. Make use of the Pathways evaluations (listed belwo) to help you clearly identify where speakers succeeded and where there is room for continued growth and improvement. For each presenter you evaluate, find a few things they did well and mention them in your evaluation. Your purpose is to help members be more self-confident and improve their speaking skills.

Tips on being an effective Evaluator:

Check the club schedule regularly to see which role you are given for the next meeting Contact the speaker prior to the meeting to determine on which project they are working Open that project and review the criteria (see list below) Either print the evaluation form or have it online ready to fill out as you listen to the speaker* After the speaker ends, complete the evaluation form Give your evaluation when called upon to do so Review the evaluation form one last time and send it to the speaker Club Database
