Small Talk. Big Impact

This week’s English speaking session for advanced group was all about something we all do—but rarely think about: small talk.

Together, we explored how short, simple conversations can actually have a big impact:

building trust

creating connection

opening doors to deeper conversations

Through interactive activities and games, participants practiced turning “boring” everyday phrases into natural, engaging conversations, learned how to keep small talk alive, and—just as importantly—how to exit conversations politely and confidently.

What stood out most was this realization:

small talk isn’t about being interesting — it’s about being interested.

Lots of laughter, honest reflections, real-life situations, and practical language that can be used right away — at work, in social settings, and in everyday life.

Grateful for this group and the energy they bring to every session

Small talk may be small, but its impact is greater.
