Toastmasters Mentor Matching FAQ
Who should manage Toastmasters mentor matching?
The Vice President Education often coordinates mentors, but the VPM, President, or a mentoring coordinator can help when new members need onboarding support.
What should a Toastmasters mentor track?
Track the new member goal, Pathways starting point, first meeting role, Ice Breaker progress, next action, follow-up date, and any confidence or attendance concerns.
How soon should a new member get a mentor?
Assign a mentor as soon as possible after joining, ideally before the first few meetings, so the member knows who to ask about Pathways, roles, and the Ice Breaker speech.
How is mentor matching different from onboarding?
Onboarding explains how the club works. Mentor matching gives the member an ongoing person who helps turn that orientation into speeches, roles, and progress.
