English Conversation Club

Every Friday | 3:00 - 5:00 PM, TELUS Centre

Join the Conversation!

The English Conversation Club (ECC) is an opportunity to practice your English speaking skills. Attend the ECC to interact with staff and students from across campus, representing all levels and faculties. 

ECC is a place for students, staff, and faculty from Canada and worldwide to share their perspectives, cultures, and viewpoints on various topics. A chance to see how your world views contrast and compare to others and a chance to interact and build relationships with a diverse group of individuals.

We play in and around topics not found in your everyday academic interactions by sharing insights, opinions, and questions. Though the perspectives are varied, the predominant language of conversation is English. You may find new ideas and interesting ways to express them, or you may even find a few new alternative ways to express older familiar ideas.

Each week the ECC focuses on a different topic chosen by participants the week prior. The English Conversation Club meets every Friday throughout the academic year.

No registration is required. Drop-ins welcome!
