FOUR REASONS TO JOIN

Solo study only gets you so far. Real progress happens when you speak with real people.

01
Build Real Confidence
Practice speaking in a relaxed, supportive space. Build the confidence to speak naturally at work, school, or in everyday life.
02
Learn Practical English
We skip the textbook and focus on phrases and vocabulary you'll actually use. Every session leaves you more ready for real conversations.
03
Connect Globally
Meet motivated learners from around the world. Exchange ideas, share experiences, and have real conversations while improving your English.
04
Accelerate Your Progress
Get live feedback and practical tips from experienced teachers. Regular group practice accelerates progress in ways solo study can't.

🎲
Interactive Activities
Role-plays, discussion games, vocabulary challenges, and collaborative tasks that keep the energy high and the learning natural.
📝
Live Feedback

🌍
Global Perspectives
You'll speak with people from different countries and backgrounds. Every session expands how you think and communicate in English.

Podcast Connection
Speaking Club topics connect with our Break The Ice English podcast. Listen before, discuss during, and deepen your learning after.

COMMON QUESTIONS

What level do I need to join? +

Speaking Club is designed for students at B1 level and above. If you can hold a basic conversation in English, you're ready. We adapt discussions so everyone can participate, whether you're B1 or C2.

What happens in a typical session? +

Each session runs for 90 minutes and includes a mix of discussion topics, interactive activities, vocabulary work, and open conversation. Topics change every week and often connect with our Break The Ice English podcast episodes.

Can I try a single session before subscribing? +

Yes! You can book a single trial session for $12. No commitment. If you enjoy it, you can subscribe for $48/month which gives you 4 sessions. Cancel anytime.

What if I miss a session? +

Life happens. If you miss a session, you're always welcome at the next one. Sessions run every Friday, so you never have to wait long to get back in.

How many people are in each session? +

We keep groups small so everyone gets a chance to speak. Sessions typically have 4 to 10 participants. Small enough for real conversation, large enough for diverse perspectives.
