Hi everyone. I know of italki for 1 on 1 lessons, but does anyone know of any virtual group conversation classes. It would be awesome to work on conversation skills to build my Spanish speaking abilities and to meet others as well.

I minored in Spanish in college, but that focused primarily on history/lit and less so on functional, conversing skills. I'm pretty good at what I would call broken conversation Spanish, but would love to improve.

I like to use video to demonstrate features of turn-taking, some of which include moves that indicate the speaker wishes to hold, take or relinquish the conversational floor. I have found that rather than saying what learners should be doing, it is easy for them to see for themselves, conduct mini-analyses, and then tell me what they need to incorporate/do/change.

I followed this up with a bunch of other videos, again showing what not to do in conversation. Some examples include videos with Donald Trump (always a fan favourite) and other politicians. With one of the videos, I actually only showed learners the video without sound so they would focus solely on the physical features of turn-taking.

As a follow-on from the video analysis (or done separately), conversation cards which get learners to speak with certain objectives are a great means of getting learners to put in practice their interrupting skills. Firstly, however, it is generally good to provide learners with some necessary vocabulary.

In addition to small group Spanish language classes for adults, Vive La Experiencia also has a range of other private, semi-private, and small group Spanish language experiences for kids, teens, and adults. Tutoring, ESL, and translation services are also available.

In our online Spanish conversation practice, we use our breakout rooms so you can interact with your classmates directly, have deeper conversations, and have more chances to practice what you have learned.

If you enable class conversations for individual content items, students can discuss the content with you and their classmates. They can ask for help, share sources, or answer questions others have. As the conversation develops, it appears only with the relevant content. Conversations don't appear on the discussions page.

You can also use Collaborate Ultra to meet virtually with groups if your course uses Collaborate and you enabled conversations. To open the group's Collaborate room, select the Open Collaborate room icon.

Looking for an opportunity to practice your speaking skills?

Take a look at the list of conversation courses included in the Pack "Class + Conversation" below. Note that the "FrenchPronunciation" course is also included in this pack.

Conversation classes are designed to encourage you to talk on different subjects while practicing your spoken skills. Class afterclass, you will become more confident and comfortable in any conversation in French.

To set the tone for your classroom environment, consider explicitly addressing the role of difficult dialogues in your syllabus. This early communication signals to your students that controversial topics are not to be feared but can serve as a platform for learning and personal growth from the very beginning of the course. You may also find it useful to establish ground rules for discussing difficult or sensitive topics, such as these campus-community conversation guidelines developed by the National Communication Association Center for Communication, Community Collaboration, and Change.

Active management of the discussion is paramount. Be prepared to prompt students for follow-up, ask for additional explanations or evidence, and remind them of the discussion guidelines. Ensure that the conversation aligns with the stated goals, and if hesitancy or discomfort arises, address it openly. Consider asking why the topic is challenging to discuss and reaffirm the course or disciplinary framework that supports the conversation. Your willingness to admit your own discomfort can make students more at ease with their own reservations, especially if you demonstrate how to work through them.

Also, create structured opportunities for reflection and input. Encourage moments for everyone to pause, think, and reflect, particularly when the conversation loses momentum or becomes contentious. Incorporate short writing breaks to diffuse tension and refocus the discussion, allowing students to engage more thoughtfully with the challenging subject matter.
