Welcome to the Telfort Business Institute’s E280 Conversational English Class. The object of this course is to learn how to converse fluently and effectively in English. For the next eight weeks we will finely turn your skills in the act of debating and role-playing. We will also practice speech rhythm and diction with an emphasis on enunciation and specific speech problems encountered by those who are studying English as a foreign language.

Numerous discussions on a wide variety of subjects will be held, including topics of business, fiction, travel, differences between Western and Chinese culture, education and life experiences.

You will have ample opportunities to give oral presentations and voice your opinions on the various topics that we plan to cover. It is very important that you talk as much as you can. Don’t wait for your instructor to ask you to speak. If you have a question to ask, additionally, if you have any questions about anything your fellow students say, please feel free to ask.
