Never know what to say at a social or networking event? Join us to learn the skills and confidence to introduce yourself in ways that are memorable and how to actively listen to people so you can remember what they’re telling you, and how to respond well. These techniques are aimed to help you build rapport with other people and make talking with others less challenging. (Note: this course is not designed to teach English to speakers of other languages. High level ESOL students are welcomed.)
This course offers a course fee subsidy through funding from the Tertiary Education Commission (TEC) for NZ citizen and permanent migrant adults, and young people aged 16+ who are not currently enrolled in a NZ secondary school. We need to collect extra information such as age, ethnicity, educational achievement and gender for statistical purposes. You must also provide evidence of NZ citizenship or residency if requested. A condition of accepting this course fee subsidy is that you will attend both classes.
The Art of Conversation will give you the skills to make conversations more enjoyable: both for you, and for the people you converse with.
You'll learn to introduce yourself in ways that are memorable in a variety of situations. Find out how to actively listen to people so you can actively remember what they are telling you, and respond well.
