Be in the room where your language level doesn't matter, only your ideas do
Join passionate English learners for thought provoking debates on social, political, philosophical, and sociological topics. Twice a month, online and in person.
Master English Through Meaningful Debate
The English Discussion League is more than just a language club. We're a community of curious minds who believe that the best way to master English is through engaging, thought-provoking conversations.
Every two weeks, we gather to debate topics that matter from social justice and political philosophy to cultural trends and ethical dilemmas. One session online for global accessibility, one in person for deeper connections.
Our motto: "We listen, we don't judge." Here, every voice matters, every perspective enriches the conversation, and every mistake is a step toward fluency.
