Beginner - Intermediate Level
Many people who study foreign languages struggle with real conversations. They have learned scripted dialogues in class, and they are capable of ordering in a restaurant or asking for basic directions.

Learners will develop their ESL conversational skills which includes listening and comprehension as well as speaking in English. Learners will enhance their conversational fluency. They can participate in this club over and over again because every conversation is different and unpredictable.

Homework Offered

Assessments Offered
At the end of each session, I will assess each learner's conversation, and I will give them no more than three suggestions to work on for the next class. Learning conversation can be overwhelming, so three new things to learn is the perfect number to keep learners excited rather than discouraged.Grades Offered
Students need to keep their cameras and mics on, and be in a quiet environment to participate in the class conversation.
All class discussion topics will be G-rated
