Build up your confidence with the help of a native British teacher to speak and courage to express yourself in a wide range of topics.

If you are already confident in English but want to improve your conversation skills, this is the discussion group for you. We will be exploring and discussing a variety of topical subjects in a relaxed, motivating setting. Discussion will be based on material given to study at home beforehand, so everyone can prepare at their own leisure for discussion in class. There will also be a chance for students to suggest and bring their own topics to class for discussion. We will discuss topical issues from a variety of sources, to provide plenty of new words and expressions. Material will be at times challenging texts from unabridged sources. Discussion can be based not just on reading input, but also listening to a brief podcast, for example. Whereas the focus is on discussion, we may briefly pick up on a few grammar, pronunciation and other points where necessary. After the course, you should be more confident of maintaining a conversation in English and your vocabulary should also be many new words and expressions richer.
