English Conversation Club

Hello everyone,
We are back and we’re so excited to welcome you!

This spring, the English Conversation Club (ECC) begins its ninth season, continuing a journey that has become much more than an English program.

ECC is a place where people from all walks of life come together to connect, laugh, learn, and form genuine friendships across cultures and nations.

Our motto, “Joy of Conversation,” reflects our heart. Over the years, ECC has grown into a trusted and well-loved community space in Willoughby — known for its generosity, kindness, joy, and for being a safe, friendly, and welcoming environment for everyone. We are deeply grateful to have shared this journey with over 70 volunteers and more than 300 students from 23 countries so far.

ECC Spring 2026 will run every Wednesday evening from 6:30pm to 8:30pm, from March 4 to April 29 (excluding two weeks during Spring Break), with a special Cultural Night Dinner on Saturday, May 9.  All sessions will be held in the gym at Yorkson Creek Middle School. We offer English conversation groups for all levels, including thoughtfully designed groups for youth and total beginners. Whether you are confident in English or just starting out, there is a place for you here.

At ECC, we believe every person is valuable, every story matters, and learning happens best in an atmosphere of respect, joy, and encouragement.

Space is limited, so please register early before all seats are filled.  If you have any questions, please contact Marg.

We can’t wait to welcome our returning students and meet many new friends this spring.

With joy and gratitude,

English Conversation Club — Spring 2026 Leadership Team
