Hello, I'm Alex, an English teacher from London. Atomic English is based on the idea that doing something tiny for your English every single weekday is the fastest way to get brilliant, fluent English. - live sessions 10am - every weekday - daily vocabulary quiz - daily feedback and corrections on your speaking - £50 month pass https://www.englishwithalex.online/atomic-english Learn new phrases, get corrections, build your confidence using tricky structures…every day. The idea came from my own frustrations of learning languages (I study Italian and Portuguese). "I’ll study for 2 hours tomorrow", I say to myself. When tomorrow comes I do nothing. I think it’s because I build up huge expectations in my mind and then feel overwhelmed by the thought of a 2 hour study session. If only I had lowered my expectations and committed to 30 minutes a day, I’d be fluent by now! I see similar patterns with my students so that’s why I started Atomic English. - you’ll build your vocabulary - eliminate your mistakes - get confidence ... every day (or at least as often as you can make it). These tiny, Atomic English will transform your English. It’s £50 for a month pass there are sessions everday https://www.englishwithalex.online/atomic-english See you there!

Join us this Tuesday at our weekly Hollywood Networking Events. Our Hollywood FL business referral group meets every Tuesday at 8:00 am on Zoom. We only allow one person per business type. For example, I represent the [web design](https://advertising-excellence.com/web-design/) category and that means no other web designers can attend our meetings. Please [contact us](https://professionalbusinessreferrals.com/contact-us/) and let us know what type of business you are involved with. As long as there is no conflict with another member, we'll send you the Zoom link.

This group is for anyone interested in writing in English, whether it be prose or poetry or non-fiction. We get together once a week to listen, critique and support each other in our work. Attendees bring something they have written, which they read aloud. They then receive feedback from the rest of the group. The size of the group is limited to 4, so that everyone is able to receive a full 30 minutes of constructive feedback including reading time. We are an anglophone group and everything is conducted in English, in fact not everyone who comes can speak French. Please bear this in mind if you sign up.

We don't distribute our Zoom link in Meetup. It is too insecure for us. TO GET THE ZOOM LINK, [SUBSCRIBE HERE](https://www.eventagent.ai/event/?eventId=659).

There are several traits inside all of us that precisely make us who we are and that is called our personality. A lot of it depends on how the outside world perceives our personality and reacts to it. And that makes us human beings as a whole. types-of-personalities2Everybody has a basic idea of what kind of a person they are, but a lot of times, they tend to act opposite in order to hide several characteristics of themselves and that comes with a lot of problems in their social structure and standing. Over the years many have tried head over heels in order to determine several types of personality traits that could constitute all of them but there hasn’t been any success so far in that regard and the topic remains debated. But talking about the different types of personalities, the experts have been able to find certain personality traits that constitute a personality on the whole and we will discuss those traits further. But before that, we must say that the overall personality of a human being can be a combination of all those traits or one or two of them. Only in depth study can allow us to determine the traits of the personality.

Hey everyone, Let's do the virtual meeting every other Thursday at 6:00 pm! I am going live on my Facebook account, FB: Deniz McDaniel, so let me know what topics you want me to discuss. Come ready to learn, bring your questions, and let's take you to the next level! I am very excited to see you guys again! Thank you!

SCUMBAT is a diverse community with the common goals and values of becoming better speakers and leaders. We are earnest in this pursuit but light-hearted on the way to get there. It matters to us that each of us is moving towards this goal, not who gets there first or fastest or goes the furthest. Our meetings are structured and focused - but not formal or stiff. Santa Clara Toastmasters (SCUMBAT), is a chartered club (#5474) in District 101 of Toastmasters International. We are currently meeting on Zoom. WHEN: Every Friday 6 PM 6:00pm - 6:15pm, Networking 6:15pm - 7:30pm, Meeting Membership is open to all, Walk-in welcome. Meetings will cancel on holidays.

The monthly meeting! At Chelmsford Library from two to four, and bring your writing caps - we start with a short prompt and do some reading out, but you don't have to read if you don't want to. Drinks and biscuits provided, just drop a quid in the pot (free for your first time!) if you have it. Ignore what Meetups says about this being an online event, I've changed it in settings a sudden times and it is not taking. This is not an online event. See you there :)

This is the safest and best way to meet someone! Our friendly host will welcome everyone and then you'll go on a series of live 1 on 1 video dates on Zoom. A new dater will show up on your screen every 5 minutes or so until you meet everyone. \* WE HAVE DIFFERENT AGE RANGES EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS. AFTER YOU CLICK THE LINK YOU CLICK THE LINK YOU CAN CHOOSE THE AGE RANGE YOU'D LIKE TO ATTEND. WE HAVE LIMITED SPOTS AVAILABLE AND WILL SELL OUT QUICKLY SO SIGN UP ASAP TO SECURE YOUR SPOT. THE EVENTBRITE PAGE HAS THE ACCURATE EVENT DATES. Stop the endless swiping on dating apps! Let's face it, we're all tired of swiping over and over again on people who may or may not look like or be like the person they're portraying on the apps. Our online speed dating events are a much better way to meet someone because you actually get to talk to someone on video before committing to a real life date. At the end of the event you'll be able to select those you'd like to see again. If they mutually matched with you, our host will send you each others' email addresses within 24 hours of the event. Find out why this event has been called, "The absolute best way to meet quality singles in the modern age". \* THIS IS A MULTI-MEETUP GROUP EVENT. SEVERAL OTHER GROUPS HAVE ALSO BEEN INVITED SO WE'LL BE SURE TO HAVE A GOOD SIZE TURNOUT. \* Ticket price will be going up as event time approaches and we have very limited spots available so please sign up as soon as possible. *"As a busy professional, I just don't have time to get out and meet people as much as I'd like so this event was like a Godsend for me. It was a refreshingly fantastic experience!" - Jennifer S.* *"What a fabulous concept. I met some great people and I started dating one of the guys I met at the event." - Hannah M.* OH, HERE'S ANOTHER GREAT THING ABOUT THE EVENT! During each of your mini dates, we'll give you a unique compatibility question that you can both answer. These questions have been carefully crafted to help you gauge chemistry, test compatibility and get an idea about your date's character. In fact, because of these questions, people have said they feel more comfortable coming to our events, are able to learn more about their date and lead to more successful relationships than traditional speed dating events. (Of course you can choose to just chat with your date without the questions if you'd prefer to). *"The compatibility questions are the perfect way to tell if you have chemistry with the the other dater." - Emma D.* *"I loved the questions because it takes the pressure off having to come up with something new to talk about with each person. It's makes a great ice breaker." - Gavin B.* An example of some of our unique compatibility questions: \* If you had a time machine - where would you take it to? Would you stay there? \* Do you usually follow your heart or your head? \* Would you rather live for one year on an island by yourself or for one year in a small apartment with 7 strangers? \* Would you grow a mohawk for a year if it meant that $20,000 would go to a good charity? \* What is one thing you’ve always wanted to cross off your bucket list, but haven’t yet? \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* ADVERTISEMENT: Check out Squeegee Tea - The World's #1 Appetite Suppressant Drink at: [Squeegeetea.com](http://www.squeegeetea.com) \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* FAQ: HOW DO I ACCESS THE EVENT?

**Our April novel is: *The Hong Kong Widow* by Kristen Loesch** **This month’s novel blends gothic atmosphere with historical fiction and chilling horror, set against the haunting backdrop of China. The book is 368 pages in print and 10 hours and 42 minutes on audiobook.** In 1950s Hong Kong, Mei is a young refugee of the Chinese Communist revolution struggling to put her past in Shanghai behind her. When she receives a shocking invitation—to take part in a competition in one of the city's most notorious haunted houses, pitting six spirit mediums against one another in a series of six séances over six nights, until a single winner emerges—she has every reason to refuse. Except that the hostess, a former Shanghainese silent film star, is none other than the wife of the man who once destroyed Mei’s entire life. It is promised the winner will receive a fortune, but there is only one prize Mei wants: revenge. Decades later, the final night of that competition has become an infamous urban legend: The police were called to the scene of a brutal massacre but found no evidence, dismissing it as a collective hallucination. Mei knows what she saw, but now someone else is convinced they know what she did. She must uncover the truth about the last night she ever spent in that house—even if the ghosts of her past are waiting for her there. . . .

This interactive session will guide you through practical techniques you can use anytime to create a sense of peace and clarity.

...and speaking of breakthrough roles: who can forget the first time we saw Tom Cruise singing Bob Seeger in his underwear? Often considered an updated 1983 version of The Graduate, the movie sparkles with memorable lines and original music. I only regret that I was never told that "Princeton could use someone like Bob..." See the movie first and join us for some "Cruisin'"

Join us as we get together for a Discount Tuesday / Choose Your Movie event to see your choice of two great new films! Option 1 (and the one I'll be seeing) is the top-reviewed comedy-drama, THE CHRISTOPHERS! The film is set in the art world and follows the estranged children of a former artist who hire a forger. It is directed by Steven Soderberg, stars Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel and has been earning rave reviews on the indie circuit. Option 2 is the latest action-thriller starring Bob Odenkirk, NORMAL! The film follows a temporary small-town sheriff who uncovers dark mysteries after a local bank robbery. Here are descriptions, trailers and our plan for this event: THE CHRISTOPHERS: The children of a once famous artist hire a forger to complete some unfinished, long ago abandoned canvases so they'll have a better inheritance when he dies. It is directed by Steven Soderbergh and stars Ian McKellen, Michaela Coel, Jessica Gunning and James Corden. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film is earning an excellent 97% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics call it a “dynamic, emotional and surprising journey” and a “compelling chamber piece that works like intellectual comfort food.” Others call the film, an “incredibly funny, comedy drama with plot reversals that make it feel like it’s on the verge of a thriller!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H79-EqzmdwY&t=20s NORMAL: This action-crime-thriller follows a man who comes to the sleepy town of Normal, Minnesota to serve as the temporary sheriff. But a bank robbery leads him to a criminal underground reaches throughout the entire town. The film is directed by Ben Wheatley and stars Bob Odenkirk, Henry Winkler and Lena Headey. The film comes from the same team that brought us Nobody and the John Wick series, so expect an over-the-top, action-filled thrill ride! TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rmm-lM33Qw0&t=19s PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing of both films and will meet in the lobby area about 30 minutes before showtime. Once showtimes are announced, advance ticket purchase is advised (GFC website preferred)! Please list your movie of choice and seat number in the Comments section of this event. Showtimes and complete details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer. PARKING: Close, convenient parking is available in the nearby garage (located between 9th and 11th, just off High St). Bring your ticket with you and have it validated at the theater and for $2, you’re covered for the night! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Saturday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 10AM on Saturday mornings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 10:00 - SESSION 1: quick intros. 10:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 11:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11A-11:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Saturday!
