Practice Speaking English

WANY conversation groups are comprised of adult immigrant New Yorkers with varied levels of English language proficiency. Using episodes from the Emmy-award winning   We Are New York  television series, conversation groups discuss issues that most concern immigrants like speaking with a child’s teacher, financial management and health care. WANY conversation groups are hosted at various sites throughout New York City and are completely free.  The groups meet once weekly for ten weeks or twice weekly for five weeks and are led by trained volunteer facilitators. 

 As a participant, we ask that you:

• Be an adult immigrant over the age of 18 seeking to practice English conversational skills
• Attend each conversation group session
• Comply with the rules of each host site and volunteer facilitator
