What we’re about
One of the longest studies in humans' history is Harvard’s study on Human Development, which, in brief, proved that having good relationships is the biggest reason for happiness.
Encouraged by the study, Abdulaziz Almutlaq founded The English Club Initiative with the vision to build the Most Entertaining, Most Inclusive English Community.
The English Club organizes weekly events that bring people together. It fosters a sense of belongingness and a feeling of joy.
As of 2024, April 20, The English Club has over 2200 members with a rating of 4.8 by more than 235 guests. It has organized +80 events, hosting a total number of +1000 attendees from US, India, Saudi Arabia, Europe, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Egypt, South Africa, and more.
Such events encourage our guests to socialize, build friendships, expand their connections, and exchange expertise in a welcoming and friendly environment.
I have a dear vision to my heart.
I Want to Build the Best, Most Entertaining, Most Inclusive English Community in Riyadh.
I'm not gonna tell you why this means a lot. At least, not for now (;
(I know a lot will hate me for this xD)
But I'm gonna tell you something else!
I'm so happy you are here (;
I really am!
So, let’s get you introduced, shall we?
The English Club is a friendly community that brings diverse individuals together over a cup of coffee, tea, hot chocolate ... Maybe all? You get the point 🤣
And together in one place, we share fascinating experiences, engage in exciting discussions, and enjoy each other's company
It is truly a place of inclusivity where we build long-lasting friendships, professional connections, and memorable experiences
This is all with one aim in mind ... Leaving the gathering with a sense of fulfillment, warmth, and joy. And I will personally guarantee that for you!
So, roll up your sleeves and let's get down to business!
How Does Our Event Work?
First, with arms wide open, we will welcome you ✅
Then, we will guide you to your own table to grab a chair, enjoy a sip, and chill ✅
After that, you will hear a quick, light introduction about The English Club and get access to the prepared questions ✅
And here, the fun part begins!! We will start our exciting group discussion ✅✅✅
An hour later or something, we will change tables! ✅
You know ... dynamicity is entertaining
This is pretty much it
So simple, isn't it?
Yup?!
Great, we are on the same page amigo!
But, one more thing
Or maybe a couple:
Reminders to Make the Gathering SUPER FUN:
Granted! I assume you are emotionally and culturally intelligent, so let's abstain from talking about sensitive topics ... They seem to bring hatred ... I don't like it
Anyway, something good about me? (Surprise ... I have good traits too. lol) When we gather, I try to silence my phone to connect with all of you, so feel free to do just that (Trust me it FEELS different)!
Next ... You already know this, but The English Club is an English Community (Talk about stating the obvious huh? xD) So, we will be conversing in English.
If this feels intimidating, trust me; I've got your back! I will help you along the way! (;
Also, we all value our privacy and stuff you know, so let's respect the privacy of others too
Lastly (finally huh? xD) ... As a reminder, be respectful and open-minded; we all have unique personalities, let’s appreciate that in each other
I KNOW! I write a lot. I just can't resist it bruh! ):
agllkagkjadghdamkadgl
See?
lol. I should be more serious ...
Anyway my friend, we want you to know that our community events are totally free of charge.
But if you have attended our gatherings and felt entertained, enriched, or inspired, feel free to support our initiative; we sincerely appreciate that (;
With that being said, you can also be part of The English Club Community via our Telegram group.
It’s a good way for all of us to connect, and we do welcome good people .. like yourself! 🪭
Did you just say thank you?
Ohh, no need pal, for real 🦦
But I mean if you insist, you’re welcome xD
Finally … If you have reached here, (without cheating ….. or maybe with a lil bit of it 🦦)
I really congratulate you!
It's been a hustle, hasn't it
No?
Because my writing is good?
Ouah, thanks 🩵
I didn’t see this one coming 🤣🤣
You know ... On a positive note, I genuinely hope to see you with us soon by the way 💛

Upcoming events (3)
See all- Journaling for Character Development | #86The Last Cup , Riyadh
This is truly shocking 🫢
barely expected
and hardly common my friend!
What is going on?
Glad you asked! 🐥
Well, this research study, and this one, as well as this one ... Not to forget this too (I still have more if you insist xD) ...
All have shown that journaling can:
- Improve your mood 🔥
- Make you more resilient 💯
- Increase your happiness level ☀️
- Help you manage stress and reduce anxiety 🙂↔️
- Boost immune functions and enhance cognitive processing 💪🏼
- Make you achieve more goals and navigate obstacles successfully 💰
|
And to be frank with you,
as a person who has been journaling for 3 years now,
I can confidently tell you that I have experienced all of these benefits,
especially the ones related to higher mental resilience, better stress management, and more goal accomplishments
But knowledge - I must say - is like a flame. It only grows brighter when it is passed from one candle to another 💡
That is why we created this event …
To help guide all of us through a structured journaling process that is
Enjoyable ✅
Enriching ✅
Uplifting ✅
Aaaand Simple ✅"What to bring with us, Aziz? You may ask"
Good question my pal. 💯
Almost nothing ... Just bring any tool you love writing with
This could be a notebook, a laptop, an iPad, you get the idea …
WAIT …
I almost forgot
Why didn’t you remind me? 🐣
You forgot too? lol .. all good my friend 🤣
Let’s also bring with us a good, charming smile
You know, energy is so contagious bro 🔥Not to mention that it is a weekend, why the hell wouldn't we smile? 🪭
Pardon? Did you just say that I can convince with tempting words and with logic?
Ouuh ... thank you amigo!
That's really kind of you to say 🩵On this uplifting note,
Once we arrive, we will have an entertaining conversation for around 30 minutes or something, and then we will start journaling
Have no doubt though, I will guide you through every step, and it’s gonna be fun (;
Lastly my friend, this event is totally free of charge ... we truly love what we do, and we want everyone to have access to it
But if you have attended and felt amused, inspired, or happy
You can support our mission if you will 🩵
That is all amigo,
Take care … alright?
Much Love,

- Master Public Speaking | #87Level Up, Riyadh
Maybe I'm not supposed to share this 💀,
but since I was in middle school until I got into college - yes that is more than 5 years - I had been stuttering a lot.
Especially when reading in school,
I could not complete a single sentence without pausing for 10, 20, or 30 seconds in almost every sentence.
Hell, I would take an entire class to read a single paragraph man! 🤣
It was that bad.
And to be frank ... As a person who already loves storytelling and sharing stuff nonstop,
(as you probably have figured out ... Attentive, aren't you xD)
this stuttering was embarrassing and frustrating. 🐣
But it was what it was my friend.
(I have apparently grown desensitized 🦁... Welcome to adulthood bro).Anyway, going back to the story,
During college, I have kept participating in academic activities, presentations, and social events while trying to figure out ways to manage my stuttering,
And with the passage of time, I have somehow seemed to be getting more stubborn-minded 🧠 or something ...
Here is what I mean
As I navigated the ups and the downs of the journey, I figured out that the best way to master a skill is by putting myself in the spotlight. 🎯
This basically means learning directly from our experiences while being patient with ourselves when it gets hard.
And I hate to admit it, but facing what I feared, by definition, was really scary
It was one of the times where I really needed to completely give up on comfort
And to be totally transparent with you, no matter how unpleasant it may have felt at first, I really (like … really, really xD) wanted to grow, and I know you want that too 💪🏽
So, this is why I founded this event:
To help all of us master public speaking by doing 💡
Granted! We will do it in a structured way to maximize our growth, and in an encouraging environment to make the experience funnier, better, and easier ✅
Hitting two birds with one stone, aren't we! (;
"How does it work?" You ask.
Well, my friend ... I don't want to cause you a headache or something, so leave the backend work on me!Just know this mate:
If you are afraid of making mistakes, I assure you ... I feel the same sometimes, but I will be the first to stand there and speak, because since when we let limiting beliefs stop us from achieving our goals?
And lastly my man:
This event, as you probably know, is totally free of charge, yet if you love this community like I do, you can take a step and support it! 🩵That is all mate,
Let's look forward to achieving some goals together .. shall we? (;
Warmest Wishes,
