Youth Leadership Program

Toastmasters offers "hands-on" courses to teach High School learners the rudiments of effective communication and practical business skills.

Following a program designed by Toastmasters International, members of a Toastmasters Club supervise and mentor learners in weekly meetings at a school. The learners, usually from Grade 11, learn both communication, listening and evaluation skills, while receiving the fundamentals of running a business meeting, the roles and responsibilities of each member of a meeting and Parliamentary Procedure.

Two Oceans has and continues run successful YLP progammes - both at Simon's Town High, Silvermine Academy, AZ Berman High, Sozo Educational Center and for Home Schooled teens.

If you would like a program to be run at your school please contact us to learn more.




 
 


Alana Byrne, Marion Thomas, Verity Price, Helen Burton and Carey Fenn have all taken on the opportunity to work with kids on the Youth Leadership Program.  Not only as a way of adding value to the community but also to grow as leaders and educators themselves.

Alana's humourous and amazing skills as a coach are brilliant. Anyone should count themselves lucky to gaze upon her teachings”
