Current Affairs Conversation Classes

15,00 €

Improve your English by talking about what is happening in the world

What happened this week? What story is dominating the news? An election? A political scandal? A corruption case? A natural disaster? A major event that has sparked public debate?

These conversation classes don't follow a fixed syllabus. Every week, we'll work with one of the most important stories in the news.

Around four days before the class, you'll receive an article and the materials I've prepared for you. You'll read about the story, look at the context, learn useful vocabulary and expressions and come to class ready to discuss it.

How does it work?

Before each class, you'll receive everything you need to prepare. We'll normally work with a news article, useful vocabulary and several questions to help you explore the topic.

You'll also receive small assignments to keep using English outside the classroom. You might be asked to write something about the topic, answer a few questions or send me a voice message, for example.

During the class, we'll analyse the article or the video and its wider context, but most importantly, we'll talk.

I want you to become more confident expressing your opinions, building an argument, reacting to other people's ideas and discussing real-world issues in English.

What will we talk about?

We don't know yet and that's the whole point!

We might discuss elections, political developments, scandals, corruption cases, protests, conflicts, social issues, natural disasters or major public debates.

The topic will depend on what is actually happening during the week of our class.
