MISCELLANEOUS OBSERVATIONS AND COMMENTS

GENERAL EVALUATOR SCRIPT

Good afternoon, fellow toastmasters and a warm welcome to our guests.

For the benefit of our guests, I am the general evaluator today and I conduct the evaluation portion of

our meeting. I will be calling on a team to assist me with giving feedback to our speakers and I will

evaluate the meeting as well.

[To conserve time in a club that meets for an hour, you may omit a formal introduction of the

evaluation team members and call upon them by name.]

Help me welcome _[evaluator #1]_______________________ to evaluate the speech given by

_[speaker #1]_______________________

[Lead the applause; shake hands as you turn control of the lectern to the evaluator.]

[When the evaluator completes the evaluation, return to the lectern and shake hands with the

evaluator as he returns to his seat.]

[Say a sentence or two to acknowledge the evaluation. Also, if the evaluator did not have a suggestion

for improvement or something to try differently, give one now. If the evaluation was harsh, restore a

positive tone. Evaluations build up the speaker’s confidence and abilities.]

Help me welcome _[evaluator #2]_______________________ to evaluate the speech given by

_[speaker #2]_______________________

[See directions following evaluator #1]

[Repeat for as many evaluators as speakers]

Next we’ll here from the grammarian _______________________ who’s been listening for good uses
