Why do some people make conversation look so easy? They seem to know what to ask, when to share a story, and how to keep things flowing without forcing it. It can look like a natural gift, but much of it comes down to techniques we can learn and practise. What changes when we stop trying to say the perfect thing and start paying closer attention to the person in front of us?

Join Chris, an IELTS instructor and communication coach, to explore what makes a conversation feel effortless. We’ll try ways to ask better follow-up questions, find common ground, and recover when a chat stalls, with plenty of chances to practise together. Chris’s clubs are always full of laughter and interaction, with surprisingly deep learning points tucked into the fun.

为什么有些人聊天看起来就那么轻松？他们好像知道该问什么、什么时候该讲个故事、怎么让话题自然往下走，完全不用硬撑。这看起来像天赋，但其实很多都是可以学和练的技巧。当我们不再老想着要说出一句完美的话，而是把注意力放到对面那个人身上，会有什么不一样？

跟着 Chris 一起来聊聊，到底是什么让一场对话变得毫不费力。他是雅思老师，也是沟通教练。我们会试试怎么问出更好的追问、怎么找到共同点、冷场了又怎么接回来，而且有很多机会一起练。Chris 的活动一向都是笑声和互动拉满，玩着玩着还能学到一些挺深的东西。
