The English Conversation Club is a free program run by volunteers.
Bookings are essential as seats are limited. Please note bookings open two days before each Conversation Club date.
Sessions may be subject to cancellation at late notice.
Conversation groups are for adult learners and are not suitable for children.
We ask that private English teachers do not bring their paying students to the Conversation Clubs. The Conversation Clubs are volunteer led and designed and catered for community members that require free access to English conversation practice. We recommend teachers hold their own practice sessions as a part of their courses.
There are sessions online via Zoom and in person at City Library, Southbank Library and Kathleen Syme Library (Carlton):
