Mentor Program

A mentor is a more experienced member who takes a personal interest in and helps another member. Mentors serve as role models, coaches, and confidantes, offering knowledge, insight, perspective and/or wisdom useful to the other member. A mentor can help a new member become familiar with our Club or can assist a more experienced member in learning special skills.

 Confidence Builders is a President's Distinguished Club with several Distinguished Toastmasters and a Nationally Accredited Speaker serving as resources. The mentor program is available to all members, with a tailored growth program to suit your individual needs.


Interested in becoming a mentor?

The only requirements are that you complete your first four speeches (from the Competent Communicator manual) and are up to speed on all club roles.
