Being able to express yourself in English with ease and confidence makes you instantly an assertive and well-spoken person to other people’s eyes. Wouldn’t you like to have the charisma and dynamism of someone who can take part in English stimulating discussions and elaborate on any possible topic? Just imagine joining any discussion that happens at work or networking at social events, effortlessly and enthusiastically.
This is the exact purpose that brought ProEnglish to create our Everyday English Conversation Groups.
What are Everyday English Conversation Groups?
We’ll be meeting periodically, select a real event or piece of news from around the world, and start reporting it and sharing our point of view. The debate that will follow is designed to help you:
- improve your fluency, pronunciation, and speaking skills
- enrich your vocabulary range
- polish your grammar
- interact verbally with others
- stay opinionated in English as you would be in your native language
- start using English with confidence
Who can attend Everyday English Conversation Groups?
These classes are for Intermediate to Upper Intermediate and even Advanced English Language Learners (B1+-C2).
If you love:
- expanding your cultural boundaries
- discovering the most recent developments in the world
- expressing your views on international and local affairs
- sharing your experiences about life, work, hobbies, and interests
- enjoying an intimate atmosphere that enhances your learning
the Everyday English Conversation Groups will:
- reactivate your English in a productive way
- stimulate the use of expressions and vocabulary that you typically find in magazines and online news portals
- provide an entire verbalization arsenal for a broad range of topics
- occur within groups of people that have the same English level and goals as you have
- focus on fresh topics that will be offered via short audio and video clips
- give the possibility to make new buddies you can practice your English with
How does it work?
Each week a new topic for stimulating discussion will be initiated. A handout will be given to you containing the topic of the week including a few activities that will fire up the conversation. A smart vocabulary list will be sent to the group members so you can fill it in either in class or on your computer and have a clear assessment of your learning progress each week! Your English Trainer will be facilitating the conversation, introduce new questions to the group, highlight the structural weaknesses in the discussion and provide the missing foundations to improve your English speaking skills further. Proper English tea and a few raw delicacies will be provided to make each weekly conversation more memorable!
Number of participants
Our Everyday English Conversation Groups are open to a very limited number of participants (3-5 people only), so there is enough time for group members to converse and express their opinions without any special pressure.
