About ESL Cafe Sessions:
These sessions are great for those wishing to improve their critical thinking skills, as well as their ability to engage in academic discussion or debate in the context of a class or group project where they need to have their voice heard.
ESL Café sessions provide students opportunities to engage in guided academic discussions and debates covering a range of thematic topics.
Each session is separated into three types of speaking activity, namely: interpersonal communication, timed argumentative mini-debates, and critical discussions regarding abstract concepts and ideas. These sessions are designed to provide ample time for oral production and practice.
