The UW LLC English Conversation Practice Hours are currently held during winter quarter once per week. All members of the UW community are encouraged to attend:
- Undergraduate Students
- Graduate Students
- Staff
- Faculty
Students will practice in small groups, with discussions and practice activities guided by an instructor/facilitator. We will do our best to accommodate the diverse interests of the attendees.
This is a great opportunity to connect, learn, and grow within our diverse language-learning community. We recognize that although there are reasons to develop English language competencies, the many languages and dialects spoken by our community are of vital importance as well. The goal for these sessions will be to help improve communication skills and comfort when speaking, but not to pressure individuals into adopting a “standard” form of English. All varieties of English are valued! We all ‘make mistakes’ when speaking, including L1 speakers of English. Mistakes are necessary for learning. This is a judgment-free community and everyone should feel comfortable regardless of their proficiency levels.
