Hey ESL Students, this is your weekly update as to what is happening in the world of ESL. Like many other weeks, it is filled with things for you to do!
Talk Time (last one this semester)
This week is the last talk time session for the summer semester! We at ESL Services want to thank everybody who came by to Talk Time, whether you were there one week or every week this semester, thank you for coming! Talk Time is a discussion group where you get to interact with native English speakers. You will be assigned into groups based on your listening and speaking levels. The event will help improve your conversational skills. Talk Time is happening Wednesday from 3:45 – 5 p.m. at UNB 3.128 Sinclair Suite.
