ESL Practice and Support

St. Timothy's is excited to offer support to newcomers in Toronto. Our goal is to provide conversational language practice through informal reading and discussion groups. This program is FREE, and anyone at any level of English proficiency is welcome!

We host both reading group and a career mentoring group, alternating every other Tuesday at 10 AM. Our conversation group takes place every Tuesday from 11 AM to 12:30 PM, featuring both large and small group discussions. We cover a wide range of conversational topics, provide tips on English pronunciation and grammar, learn about Canadian customs and culture, and practice using English colloquialism and idioms.

We invite all new immigrants, English language students, visitors to Toronto, parents of children temporarily attending schools, university students, and anyone looking to enhance their language skills. We aim to build a welcoming community where friendships can flourish. We hope to help participants establish meaningful connections and learn about life in Toronto, covering topics such as places to visit, restaurant suggestions, job huntng, and even navigating government offices!
