This week the ‘Thinking in English’ Community is getting to know its members!
We have covered many different topics in the Thinking in English Conversation Club but this week we thought it would be nice to focus on the best topic of all, our members.
In every community, it’s important to get to know each other, but we don’t want to answer simple questions about ourselves. Instead, we created more interesting questions!
Here are 10 conversation questions to help you get to know each other!
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 here Patreon!
