Speaking Only — Format
The 2-hour session splits in two: first 60 minutes are themed small-group discussion, second 60 minutes are open floor with a shared word/phrase logbook. Not a classroom — a conversation, with coffee on the table and music in the background.
Native Moderator System
Moderated by a native teacher; minimal correction, never interrupting flow. A Turkish teacher steps in as needed for bilingual scaffolding. Building an environment that breaks speaking fear is the goal.
Free for Active Students
If you're an active Power Akademi student, Speaking Club is fully free. Guests can join with a monthly pass that includes 4 sessions (weekly).
Pre-Erasmus / Pre-Abroad Practice
Once a month, a dedicated "Erasmus & abroad" session: real daily-life dialogs (bank, supermarket, university registration), cultural etiquette, emergency language. The right way to warm up your muscles before going abroad.

Frequently Asked Questions
What level do I need to attend?
Open to A2 (Elementary) and above. We split into leveled sub-groups so beginners feel comfortable too.
I'm not a student — how do I join?
A monthly pass or a single trial session is fine. WhatsApp us for the quickest info.
Will I feel awkward if my speaking is weak?
The core principle is: try, don't judge. The native moderator doesn't correct constantly — just nudges to push you forward.
When does it run?
Usually Saturday 14:00–16:00. Some weeks an extra Friday-evening slot opens. Weekly schedule is shared in the WhatsApp group.
