Engaging Humor in Pathways


The Engaging Humor path is a popular one in the Pathways learning experience. Its projects help Toastmasters build skills as humorous and engaging public speakers, offering strategies on writing funny speeches, using effective timing and pacing, crafting strong openings, and even figuring out how to cope when your jokes bomb. (Hint: Don’t be mad at the audience.)

Learn to understand your own sense of humor and how it translates to entertaining audiences, especially by practicing in challenging situations or in impromptu speeches. The projects include interactive activities and videos, and culminate in an extended humorous speech that allows you to apply newfound comedic talents.
