Spicareviews
Spica is an excellent source of inspiration, knowledge, and communication. We explore a wide range of relevant and fascinating topics, including debates and logical fallacies, LinkedIn profile creation, types of motivation, and more. The club also fosters multicultural bonds; thanks to Spica, I've connected with wonderful people from France, Uzbekistan, and various other countries. Despite my already high English proficiency level, I've been able to enrich my vocabulary and further improve my fluency through the sessions.

What I appreciate about Spica is that it allows me to practice my speaking skills while connecting with people from different countries. I not only learn English but also explore topics like LinkedIn, poetry, and logical fallacies. As a result, my confidence is growing, and I'm expanding my knowledge in subjects that I didn't think I had enough time for. Spica is a place where my curiosity finds fulfillment!

I am truly glad that I discovered Spica and the opportunity to join the club! It's not only a fantastic chance for me to enhance my conversational skills in English, but also to engage in communication with people from diverse countries and backgrounds using English. For me, it's both interesting and exciting to have these two possibilities at the same time 😃 Moreover, I find it fascinating to discuss various themes related to professional and business terminologies.

An ESL mentor is a professional and certified teacher specializing in English as a Second Language (ESL). They have expertise in teaching English to non-native speakers and are trained to provide effective language instruction and support to learners.
A typical club meeting lasts 50 minutes. It starts with a 10-minute session in a breakout room where you get to meet your partner. Then, we spend 15 minutes building vocabulary, practising functional language exercises or watching a video. This is followed by a 15-minute discussion in another breakout room. Finally, we wrap up with 10 minutes of language feedback and final thoughts.
Spica projects are structured learning initiatives that promote teamwork. They offer a platform to focus on personal and professional development while acquiring language skills. Projects are typically initiated by users, based on their interests, and involve consistent collaboration with the same team throughout each meeting to achieve a specific mission. The projects can vary widely, ranging from creating exceptional presentations to adopting healthy habits inspired by the book 'Atomic Habits' or developing a blogging strategy for LinkedIn, among others. Professional teachers facilitate these projects and provide personalized feedback to each participant.
Currently Spica is for learners of English.
