Eric Winger has twice won district speaking contests in humorous speech and evaluation. 
He is a speech coach, past president of Feedbackers, and a coach at Future Stars – a youth speaking club.

The Sandwich method of evaluation is a sturdy, dependable way to give feedback. Say something positive, then offer a suggestion for improvement, then say something positive.

But what if just giving a nice evaluation isn’t enough? What if you really want to help people become better speakers? What if you want to be able to help people no matter what skill they are trying to learn? Wouldn’t that be a marketable skill?

* More motivational
* More specific
* More immediately useful to the speaker
* More relevant beyond Toastmasters
