Club Leader: Sevda Çelik Barut

Do you enjoy speaking? What about in English? Do you feel confident speaking in front of others? Or do you flush and move uneasily, does your voice tremble, and your mouth go dry? When you are learning a language, speaking is one of the most challenging skills, and maybe the most important! At the end of the day, they don’t ask you “Do you know grammar and vocabulary?” They ask you “Do you SPEAK the language?” If you need more motivation and more opportunities to improve your speaking skills, well, that’s what you will find in this club. So, join in!

The aims of the club are to:

• Think critically
• To be creative
• To interact with others
• To speak confidently (and without worrying about your mistakes!)

Learning a new language is becoming a member of the club – the community of speakers of that language. ‒ Frank Smith
