Communicating confidently
If you're an international student, join us at the English Conversation Club to improve your English speaking skills through interactive learning.
The English Conversation Club is designed for international students who want to enhance their conversational English skills. It's a social, fun and relaxed setting where everyone is encouraged to talk, share their experiences, practise their speaking, improve their confidence to talk in public and successfully interact with others.

Testimonials
There is nothing better than being in a English speaking club. It's much more than I expected. Join us!
It gives me more chance to speak and learn the culture from different countries, meet new friends and old friends, and develop your mind.
This is what I appreciate from the English speaking club: meeting new friends, interesting discussion topics, improving my English, getting to know about life in Australia and the really nice group leaders.
