English Connections is based entirely on volunteers, so programs/services vary each semester. All groups are free! Note: You may only register for ONE group each semester, due to our limited number of volunteers (one exception: Bible groups are always open for new members).
We offer the following programs:
English Conversation Groups —
Practice speaking English in a safe environment, meet new friends, learn idioms and slang, and grow in your speaking confidence. Every group is facilitated by a native English speaker. Groups meet at various times/locations throughout each semester.
Bible Discovery Groups –
Discover the Bible for yourself! Many people assume they know what the Bible says, but have never actually read it. Come and read it together in a discussion group. Learn how the Bible lays the foundation for many things in American culture. Learn about Christian faith “from the inside.” Groups are facilitated by a native English speaker and person of the Christian faith. Email internationalstudentsincnyc@gmail.com if you are interested!
