English Conversations for UW Students, Scholars, and Spouses

Thank you for your interest in our free online English Conversations program! Our free, virtual sessions are a great way to practice your already existing English speaking and listening skills with a native English speaker and new friends from around the world. Our emphasis is on building confidence and fluency through informal and fun weekly conversations on a variety of topics. We offer sessions at various days and times, so you’ll have the flexibility to choose the session that fits best with your schedule.

Please note:

● This is not an English class and we are not “teaching” English. We are facilitating English conversations.
● All proficiency levels are welcome. All participants are encouraged to participate in conversations and should have some English-speaking skills.
● Each group is led by a MFIS volunteer who is a native English speaker. Volunteers are not English teachers. Their purpose is to lead group conversations and provide support.
● There are no required books, study guides, or assignments.
● The online atmosphere is very informal.
● We talk and listen to one another with respect.
● Everyone is welcome!
