Event: Speed Languaging!!

This Thursday, just gone, saw the first Speed Languaging evening at SHOP ... and it certainly won't be the last!

The workSHOP was run by CSAQ resident and good friend of SHOP, Karen Stokes and is based on the concept of 'Speed Dating'. Confident English speakers and those wanting to learn, are given separate coloured name badges and then during a timed period (marked by a bell to stop and start) chat to another member of the group (with the opposite colour name badge) using only English.

The emphasis was on fun and there was a forum for best joke and a prize for the best listener after a small quiz. If that wasn't enough, Karen also provided a shedload of delicious food for free!

We really hope these evenings will become a regular event on the SHOP calendar.
