Class description

If you're looking to develop and/or practice your speaking skills with a range of fun and fascinating topics, then you've come to the right place! In this speaking club, we'll go beyond surface-level conversations on social issues, interpersonal relationships, technology, the human experience, etc., and we'll accomplish this through a mix of relaxed, free-flowing conversation and focused speaking activities that encourage the practice of certain language skills and grammar structures. The conversations will be deep, but you can expect them to be light and fun as well. Some of the topics we'll get into include: - Witnessing the Birth of a New Language - Gettin' Old and Laughing about It - The Miracle of Medellín and the Future of Cities *The topic will change every week* Before class you'll: 👨🏽‍💻 1) Read an interesting article or watch an informative video to prepare you for the discussion topic 2) Note new advanced vocabulary words & expressions that you can potentially practice using in conversation In class you'll: 🗣 & 👂🏾 1) Discuss the article or video assigned before class 2) Dive deeper into the topic in order to further develop your conversational speaking and listening skills in groups 3) Be so interested and engaged that your head will explode (in a positive way!) If you'd like to know the topic before signing up, please feel free to message me! **NOTE** -Students must do the pre-class activities -Adults only please! (CLASS NOT FOR KIDS)

Meet your teacher

Andrew McNiece

TEFL-certified English teacher with nearly 5 years of experience teaching conversation classes

What I love about being a teacher is seeing a new vocabulary word or grammar concept "click" for a student. When that light bulb goes off in the student's head, I feel a deep sense of purpose and joy seeing them grow in real time. Examples I often give in class include jokes, because I believe students learn better with a laugh. However, I am not a clown and won't force myself to be funny, because I know that can be obnoxious. My worst nightmare is a bored student. What's yours? **ALSO** I DON'T GIVE LESSONS TO KIDS. I recommend searching for a teacher with experience teaching kids. There are some great ones on Italki!
