Beginning German

Come along to Sprechstunde in our ventilated offices to practice your German over some tea and coffee. Meet fellow German learners and grow your confidence. Please RSVP, we try to accommodate walk ins but numbers are limited to 10 participants. Light refreshments are available, please advice if you have any dietary requirements.

I am a native, qualified teacher of English and this is a session designed for you to go over any particular issues that you have in English - grammar, exam preparation, pronunciation, vocabulary and so on - as well as to practise your conversational skills discussing current topics. Just let me know if there is anything you would like me to cover during the session. The fee of £5 can be paid on the day in cash or in advance online. Thanks, Keith

If you love anime & manga then please join us for our weekly meetups, where we basically just sit, chat and read anime & manga! We usually sit in the back of the pub. If the weather is nice we may sit outside at the back of the pub, or even outside on the downstairs floor. In this meetup, you can BYOM (bring your own manga) or read one from the selection we will bring. See this as an opportunity to discover, recommend or simply enjoy Japanese comics & anime with like-minded people! Note: This is not a book club. Also, the TCR bar is kind enough to allow us to use their space to host this meetup, and has asked if possible for attendees to support the venue by purchasing a drink or food while you're there. Please don't bring your own food or drink to consume at the venue, as the venue does not allow this!

**This is an opportunity for you to meet native English speakers and get lots of conversation practise and see some London sights** We will be walking section 14 out of 15 of the Capital Ring walk. Starting from Hackney Wick station, we will walk along the Greenway, past Abbey Mills pumping station and Greenway Community orchard and finish in Beckton District Park. We will be walking for approximately two hours with a break in between. The pathways are mainly on level tarmac paths with a few moderate slopes but it is mainly flat, and there shouldn't be any issues with mud even if it has been raining. Keep an eye on the event chat which I'll update a day or two before to confirm we are going ahead. We will **meet just outside Hackney Wick overground station at 10:45** at the White Post Lane exit (North side). Unless there is a transport issue affecting everyone, we will aim to start off on the walk at 11am. I will add my location tracking on Glympse so if you are late, we will not wait but you will be able to catch us up. After the walk at Beckton I am planning on heading to a local pub for a drink and a bite to eat. If you are up for coming along please indicate in the comments. I'm estimating we would reach the end of the walk at Beckton for around 13:00. The nearest station to the endpoint is Royal Albert, however I understand this station is closed on the Sunday of the walk and **the nearest next open DLR station is Prince Regent**, around 15 minutes walk.

Lets grub a drink & come and practice speaking English with our English speaking volunteers. You will learn more about British culture at the same time. This week at International Cafe, we invite everyone to meet up for drinks at the local PUB and engaging conversations. It is open to everyone who likes to make new friends and practice English. So mark your calendars: 🕕 Time: **Sunday at 2.30 PM** 📍 Address: ECIR OEA, meet up on the steps of Inspire at St James Church Questions? Text Organiser 07708228436
