Tanglin TMC, founded in 1999, is one of 9,300+ Toastmaster clubs in the world. Headquartered in California, Toastmasters International is now active in some 80 countries and includes clubs using a variety of languages, including Mandarin Chinese, Malay and Tamil.

Until recently, Tanglin TMC was in District 51, which included clubs in Hong Kong, Macau, Indonesia, Thailand, Brunei and Malaysia as well as Singapore. This very successful district was proclaimed the top district in the world based on membership growth and the educational achievements of its members, among other criteria, several years in a row. In addition, District 51 saw phenomenal growth, leading it to be largest district in the world. As of July 1st, 2004, District 51 was split with Thailand, Hong Kong, Macau and Singapore forming the new District 80. We look forward to continued success in our new District.

Tanglin TMC is itself a highly successful, friendly club. Over the last few years, we have consistently achieved Distinguished status.

Our Goal: To help each member improve their public speaking, listening and leadership skills.

How We Do it: Toastmasters is not a course. Rather, we are a group of friendly people who, in a mutually supportive and positive learning environment, help each other by providing opportunities to speak followed by constructive suggestions for improvement.

Why is This Important? Many people are afraid of speaking in public. In many jobs, being able to make presentations, give sales pitches and provide information are vital skills. Join us and improve your career prospects, self-confidence and personal growth.

About Toastmasters International: Toastmasters International is a non-profit organization governed by a Board of Directors elected by the membership. The first Toastmasters club was established on October 22, 1924, in Santa Ana, California, by Dr. Ralph C. Smedley, who conceived and developed the idea of helping others to speak more effectively. More clubs were formed, and Toastmasters International was incorporated under California law on December 19, 1932. Toastmasters International's business and services are administered by its World Headquarters, located in Rancho Santa Margarita, California. It employs no paid promoters or instructors. It has no salaried staff except the Executive Director and World Headquarters staff, who provide services to the clubs and districts.
