General Evaluator John BowenAbout Us

Fast Forward Communicators was chartered on April 1st, 1999.

We provide a positive, supportive, and safe environment to everybody who is interested in improving their communication skills and leadership skills.


"I attribute most of my accomplishment during my journey to DTM to the members in Fast Forward. There is no other club that I know that will make you stretch and grow like Fast Forward... I am a much better speaker and a much better evaluator because of my membership in Fast Forward." – Peter Burns, DTM


We take pride in the following:

  • Effective Evaluations. Our evaluations focus on the objectives of the project, and they are to the point – no "white washing" supported.

  • Flexible Schedule. We can easily accommodate speakers with advanced speeches that don't fit into that regular "one hour at lunch" Toastmasters meeting.

  • Experienced Members. The majority of our members have served as a District Officer or are currently serving.

  • Mentors. Each experienced member also serves as a mentor to new members. Mentors help with the first speech projects and to master the first assignments in conducting a meeting.

  • Special Events. Periodically we offer workshops, i.e. about effective evaluations or how to master Table Topics.

"Individual talents are given ample time and tactful evaluations which create an atmosphere where leadership and communication skills are enhanced." – Susan Davis, ATMB CL
