About the Class: |
Welcome to Smart Teaching Online's weekly conversation club for intermediate and advanced English students. This space is dedicated to all those non-native speakers eager to discuss the most controversial topics on the face of this earth with the sole purpose of helping you increase your language skills (specially your advanced speaking abilities).
Here you will have the opportunity to respectfully hear and express your ideas within an international virtual classroom. The Club is formed by a limited number of participants (1-5) who will discuss a highly controversial topic for 90 minutes. The English instructor performing as a moderator has broad expertise in helping students speak fluently and intelligently in a second language.
Everyone in the session will have the opportunity to speak and debate. All topics are interesting and highly controversial.The instructor will also provide participants with helpful feedback at the end of every session; such feedback may include vocabulary and grammar tips to enrich the learning process of the event. This class may have from 1 to 5 participants only. The idea is to make an exclusive space to get the best out of it for all participants. After the session is over, participants will have the opportunity to write an essay on the subject and e-mail it to the instructor afterwards, so he corrects it and provides you with personal accurate feedback. This feedback will be very valuable for your advanced speaking and writing skills.
We will have a new topic every week!
Our conversational system of teaching English has been successfully introduced in schools and enterprises in Mexico. Some of the direct benefits of this class includes:
- Acquisition of fluency and confidence when speaking English to unknown listeners;
- Participation in a meaningful and constructive conversation with participants from different parts of the world;
- Learning of useful strategies and techniques to gain accuracy in oral expression;
- Offline practice to develop critical language skills in advanced English.
From time to time, the instructor will offer a free online private session to the students that become regular and commit to developing their proficiency in English to a high level.
It is extremely important for you to bring a good-quality headset with a microphone included. A webcam is not necessary for this session.
Don't think that much... the thinking will occur within the classroom.
