English Conversation Program/utmTalk

Do you want to practice your English speaking and listening skills in a relaxed, non-academic setting? If so, the International Centre's English Conversation Program (ECP) is for you! ECP offers the following:

• Weekly group sessions lead by native English speakers: Group sessions most often involve games and activities which gives you the opportunity to practice your English speaking and listening skills, learn idioms and vocabulary, and practice grammar.
• Individual 1:1 sessions: In the 1:1 sessions, you can connect with an ECP volunteer and set-up a 20 minute "conversation" to take place somewhere on campus.
• You are encouraged to participate in both the group and individual ECP sessions to get the most practice! ECP has been designed to assist you in developing confidence in your English speaking and listening skills so that you are more comfortable speaking in class, approaching your professors, or obtaining work in Canada.
