Becoming ambassadors of one's territory requires not only knowing it but also mastering oral expression. So, what could be better than to give oneself the means to educate oneself in the art of public speaking?
Through the tripartite agreement uniting the Collectivity of Saint-Martin, the Saint-Martin Tourist Office and the National Education, the pupils of the 4th and 3rd Tourism classes were asked to register voluntarily for a training course. certification. About twenty college students from Mont des Accords responded. All eager to progress, these students have shown diligence and motivation by dedicating 16 hours of study during their Easter school holidays. Under the guidance of expert trainers in the field of speaking, ie volunteer members of the “St Martin Evolution Toastmasters Club”, they were introduced to the techniques of oral discourse. Nadia AGAPE, Vernicia BROOKS, Sharanne GIBBS, Ingrid HOLAMAN and Glennicia ROGERS led them to gain confidence in their potential, taught them to construct a statement in a precise communication framework and to manage an allotted speaking time.
In support of the toastmasters, the English and tourism teachers of these students, Pascal DIJON and Anthony GOMBIS under the watchful eye of Evelyne FLEMING, project manager of the vice-rector, encouraged these young people to progress while ensuring the right course of sessions (continuation and end in our next edition).
