What are "Small Talks" in LET'S SPEAK English Club?
– First of all, who makes small talk? People who don't know each other & accidentally met in the same place. Where do people talk? Anywhere: office, meeting, bus stop, airplane. Why do people make small talk? To break the uncomfortable silence, get to know someone and fill time.
"Small Talks" in LET'S SPEAK English Club – is a series of informal events devoted to intensive English practice. We provide a place where people can practice making short, one-on-one conversations on a wide range of topics in a casual, friendly atmosphere.
How did you come up with the idea of creating such an event?
– Learning English requires practice, but where can you get it if you live in a non-language environment? Speaking clubs are what will help you. Such events are not new, but they are usually run-in closed groups for a fee or free and rarely. "Small Talks" are regular and entirely free for everyone.
