What we're about
These sessions are led by Jill, a former English teacher, and Kent, who has experience as an ESL tutor.
Each week, one practice session is offered 4 times: on Monday at 7:00 pm (with Kent); on Tuesday at 6:15 pm and 7:15 pm, and on Saturday at 11:15 am (with Jill). You are welcome to sign up for one of the 4 sessions.
Each session costs $3 per person. People who attend may have the option of prepaying for the following meetup(s) in order to ensure that they get a spot. This can be discussed with the group facilitator. There are spots for 8 people at each session. Sign-ups for any empty spots will open one week before the meetup. (Sign-ups for Monday sessions will open at 9:15 pm Monday, sign-ups for Tuesday sessions will open at 9:15 pm Tuesday, and sign-ups for Saturday sessions will open at 1:15 pm Saturday afternoon.)
The Practice Session is intended for those who are still actively learning the English Language. It is an informal, oral English conversation session (no homework!!) with an emphasis on both grammar and pronunciation. We learn and practice common idioms and expressions, verb tenses and vocabulary. We also work on English pronunciation, focusing on improving the pronunciation of those hard-to-pronounce words and sounds, and getting rid of that little bit of accent that lingers. It is a casual, non-threatening informal group where you can improve your English and enjoy the company of others over a cup of tea or coffee. All levels of English learners are welcome!
Most Monday and Tuesday meetings are held at The Fyxx, 310 Broadway, on the corner of Broadway and Donald. Saturday meetings are held at Cafe 22, 336 Broadway, on the corner of Broadway and Hargrave.
For all meetings, as we are meeting in a restaurant, we request that you purchase a drink or snack while there.
If you would like further info about this group, feel free to contact Jill. She will gladly answer any of your questions.
