Thinking of Changing Careers?! (Conversation Club)

This week the ‘Thinking in English’ Community is talking about career changes!

When we are young we have to make some very big decisions. One of those decisions is to choose a career path. However, you don’t have to stick to a single career path.

Perhaps more than ever before, changing careers is very possible, but there are of course some challenges! What’s more, all career paths can be unique.

Here are 10 conversation questions to get you talking about food-based opinions!

The Thinking in English Conversation Club takes place every TUESDAY at 12pm, 6pm, and 9pm, and THURSDAY at 12pm and 6pm UK time!

You can find more details on how to participate on Patreon and Discord!
