Originally, a shy and introverted person, but by participating in an NPO (Toastmasters) Matthew was able to polish his presentation skills, learn the importance of presentation, and the need for effective practice environments.
Matthew has 22 years of experience as Toastmasters. He was a winner of the national speaking tournament, a head of the Japan branch said organization and the organizing chair of the national level contest (about 600 people attended). He has mainly focused on presentation evaluation and presentation evaluation training for the last 15 years.
Has helped both English teachers hold effective contests as well as coached high school students to win speech contest winners. His current focus is on training startups and employees with presentation skills.
