Registration will open on June 10th at 10AM.
Speaking English in real-life situations can be intimidating, but it is also one of the most rewarding ways to practice! This is why we want to provide a supportive and friendly environment where students can use the English they know in conversation with others.
Conversation Club is an informal time for adult students to use spoken English together. During this time, students will be able to practice speaking in a low-pressure, supportive environment, build confidence in real-world conversation, and connect with other English learners in the community.
