General Evaluator TM Shahrukh introduced his team with boom, TM Hammad as the Timer and the Vote Counter, TM Shahrukh as the Grammarian, TM Adnan as the Ah-Counter and TM Shahrukh as the Word-Master.

Word of the day was Extract.

Significant observations were made and shared in the Evaluation session.

The winner of the Prepared Speeches session was TM Panjwani. And the Runner up of the Best Table Topics award was TM Adnan and winner of the Best Table Topics Award was TM Fazal.

ü Thinking on your feet (table topics and evaluations)

ü Listening skills (evaluation, table topics, grammarian, etc.)

ü Time management (speaker, toastmaster, general evaluator, timer)

ü Effective expression of ways for someone to improve (evaluator and general evaluator) especially helpful if you are required to give performance evaluations
