Our first English speaking club session of the 2026 was all about change — the kind that looks exciting in theory but feels complicated in real life. We started by discussing real-life situations and ranking them from the ones that require the most changes to the least: becoming a vegetarian; moving to a different country; having children; retiring etc.
There was no single “right” order — but plenty of thoughtful arguments, personal examples, and respectful disagreement. It was a great way to warm up, practice high-level English, and realize how differently people experience change.
Later, we moved deeper into reflection. Participants chose meaningful statements.
We talked about:
• why people are afraid of making mistakes
• why small changes are often harder than big decisions
• why people stop trying when results don’t come quickly
• and why support from others matters when life feels overwhelming
One idea resonated strongly with everyone: miss once — it’s an accident; miss twice — it’s harder to come back; miss three times — and many people give up.
We didn’t talk about perfection.
We talked about consistency, self-compassion, and returning instead of quitting.
The atmosphere was open, thoughtful, and supportive — a space where adults could practice English confidently while discussing things that actually matter.
More sessions — and more real conversations — coming soon
