Articulate and Exaggerate!

There are some DONT'S when speaking

Don't say "I dunno"
Do say "I don't know"
Don't say "Probly" 
Do say "Probably"
Don't say "Gonna" 
Do say "Going to"
Don't say "Cancha"
Do say "Can't you"

There are some DO'S when speaking

Do say your words clearly using correct vowel 
sounds as well as consonants!

Do Practice this tongue-twister:

A tree toad loved a she-toad
Who lived up in a tree.
He was a two-toed tree toad
But a three-toed toad was she.

The two toed tree toad tried to win
The three-toed she-toad's heart,
For the two-toed tree toad loved the ground
That the three-toed tree toad trod.

But the two-toed tree toad tried in vain.
He couldn't please her whim.
From her tree toad bower
With her three-toed power
The she-toad vetoed him.



Fulfill your mission as an empowered Toastmaster who achieves excellence in a supportive and positive environment. Articulate and exaggerate on your road to refinement!
