English Conversation Corner
St Paul’s Church is excited to announce that we are running an English class program called English Conversation Corner. It is to help those who want to improve their English speaking skills.
It is different from formal education. We have a relaxed and encouraging atmosphere where people feel safe to have a go and practise speaking English. Every week we have different activities involving speaking in English about a wide range of different topics: everything from places of interest in Geelong to finding a job. We expect that our students will come from a wide range of countries, ages, social backgrounds, religions and English speaking abilities. We warmly welcome everyone over the age of 18.
The class runs every Thursday in term time starting at 5.00 p.m. concluding at approximately 7.00 p.m. with a free light meal (optional).
