SUMMARY:Spanish Conversation
DESCRIPTION:We are a Spanish conversation group\, with the aim of discussing a wide range of topics\, rather than formal structured learning\, so the ability to converse in Spanish is desirable\, with experience of actually speaking the language\, as well as enthusiasm to participate in discussions\, and so unfortunately it would not be appropriate for beginners. \nWe meet every Friday from 11:30 to 12:30 at the Abbeygate Cinema. We sit in a niche at the far end of the restaurant.

SUMMARY:German Conversation and Reading
DESCRIPTION:The group’s focus is to share members’ interests in the culture of German speaking countries\, alongside discussing and enjoying the finer details of the language\, whilst advancing our speaking skills. \nThis is a conversation and reading group rather than a teaching group and members should have a good knowledge of German\, with experience of actually speaking the language\, as well as enthusiasm to participate in discussions. Therefore\, the Group would not be suitable for beginners. \nOur meetings include: \nGerman conversation – a lively mix of sharing our news or interests\, with a presentation about the arts\, history\, a place of interest or a biography.  Quick quizzes\, jokes and word games are also part of the sessions.  We also read aloud in turns from a chosen book for pronunciation practice and discussion.

SUMMARY:Italian Conversation
DESCRIPTION:We are a small group of enthusiasts who enjoy studying and speaking Italian and learning about Italian culture\, and we meet in each other’s houses most Tuesday afternoons in term time\, from 2 – 3.30 pm. \nOur language skills are roughly Intermediate level\, although some of us have more experience than others. Since none of us is either an Italian teacher or a native speaker\, we help each other and learn from each other\, taking it in turns to host the meeting and prepare a topic for the week. We generally start the meeting with a general conversation in Italian\, before moving onto a more structured activity. This could be a more advanced grammatical point\, a short text to read and discuss\, or a listening comprehension.

SUMMARY:Italian Conversation
DESCRIPTION:We are a small group of enthusiasts who enjoy studying and speaking Italian and learning about Italian culture\, and we meet in each other’s houses most Tuesday afternoons in term time\, from 2 – 3.30 pm. \nOur language skills are roughly Intermediate level\, although some of us have more experience than others. Since none of us is either an Italian teacher or a native speaker\, we help each other and learn from each other\, taking it in turns to host the meeting and prepare a topic for the week. We generally start the meeting with a general conversation in Italian\, before moving onto a more structured activity. This could be a more advanced grammatical point\, a short text to read and discuss\, or a listening comprehension.

SUMMARY:German Conversation and Reading
DESCRIPTION:The group’s focus is to share members’ interests in the culture of German speaking countries\, alongside discussing and enjoying the finer details of the language\, whilst advancing our speaking skills. \nThis is a conversation and reading group rather than a teaching group and members should have a good knowledge of German\, with experience of actually speaking the language\, as well as enthusiasm to participate in discussions. Therefore\, the Group would not be suitable for beginners. \nOur meetings include: \nGerman conversation – a lively mix of sharing our news or interests\, with a presentation about the arts\, history\, a place of interest or a biography.  Quick quizzes\, jokes and word games are also part of the sessions.  We also read aloud in turns from a chosen book for pronunciation practice and discussion.
