Conversational English - 2021
Developing great communication skills.
In Blacksburg, many students and scholars arrive at Virginia Tech proficient in the skills of reading and writing English. Being able to communicate verbally, however, remains a challenge. International Students, Inc. offers English Conversation Groups to assist internationals in becoming comfortable in one-on-one or group conversations.
Let's Start Talking is a new approach to English conversation hosted by Phil and Michelle Parker and Sandra and Bob Jackson. Using both well developed English Lessons as well as passages and stories from the Bible to generate conversation, the group will spend 60 minutes strengthening skills and exploring Biblical themes. This class is now underway and meets at 8:45 AM on Friday mornings. Sign up on the Let's Start Talking form below.
Evenings with Bob and Carole Dellinger meets on Tuesday at 6:30-8:00 PM (18:30-20:00) over Zoom. We talk about the Blacksburg area and information that can enrich the lives of visiting students and scholars. Participants often share photos of their activities here and of their home countries. Our goal is conversation practice, not teaching English. Sign up on the Evenings contact form below.
