Learn English Online with Community Support & Flexible Courses in Canada
Have you ever joined a class to improve your English skills, but ended up wasting your time practicing skills you had already mastered, discussing topics you're not interested in, or learning just to get a grade on a test?
At Port of Conversation, we provide real-life conversations as they are the most valuable for you.
We believe the best approach to achieve this is to have conversations about common subjects, such as current events or shared interests. This helps create a community where these conversations can happen more naturally. We like to think of this environment as similar to a port, a place where people gather from all over the world to share goods, experiences, and especially stories.
Our mission is to create this environment online, where people from all over can gather to share stories and improve their English speaking skills by working together with others in the same boat; a Port of Conversation, if you will.
What We Offer: Flexible Courses & A Thriving Community
At the Port of Conversation, we believe that language learning is most effective when it's both interactive and structured. That's why we offer two powerful ways to learn - and you're welcome to explore one or both:
Why The Port of Conversation Works
Real English for Real Situations
You'll learn English you can actually use - to make friends, write emails, hold conversations, and navigate daily life. No more awkward textbook phrases or lessons that don't apply to you.
A Supportive Global Community
You don't have to study alone. Connect with friendly learners from around the world who understand what it's like to learn English as an adult. It's a space where everyone is welcomed, no matter your accent, grammar level, or background.
Confidence Through Practice
The more you use English, the more natural it becomes. Our daily prompts, live sessions, and feedback opportunities help you build speaking and writing skills in real time, so you feel ready to use English outside the community too.
Flexible, Self-Guided Courses
Learn on your own schedule with short, practical lessons that fit into busy days. Courses are built to be simple, focused, and full of examples - so you're never overwhelmed, and always making progress.
Community
Courses
This is the heart of The Port of Conversation — a private, welcoming space where adult English learners from around the world come together to practice, share, and support one another. Whether you're a beginner or working toward fluency, this is where you gain confidence by using English, not just studying it.
What’s Included:
- Daily prompts to practice speaking and writing in everyday English
- Safe discussion spaces to ask questions, share ideas, and get feedback
- Live events every week — including conversation groups, Q&As, pronunciation help, and more
- Supportive members who understand what it feels like to learn a new language
- Mobile and web access, so you can learn anytime, anywhere
Why It Works:
Most learners struggle to find a place to use English in a real way. The community gives you the chance to speak, listen, read, and write English in context — with others who are on the same path. You’re never learning alone.
Our course library is designed to help you build your skills at your own pace, with content that’s easy to follow and focused on real-life situations. No long lectures, no boring drills — just helpful, everyday English that makes sense. Courses are available for beginner learners all the way to advance learners and everything in between.
Course Features:
- Short, focused lessons — ideal for busy adults learning on the go
- ️ Various themes like Travel, Work, Everyday Conversations, and Grammar
- Audio + visual support to improve your listening and pronunciation
- Practice activities included with every course and a certification once the course is completed
- Progress at your own pace — pause, revisit, and review whenever you need to
Why It Works:
These aren’t generic grammar lessons — they’re real English courses built for real life. Whether you need to email a coworker, order at a restaurant, or introduce yourself in a group, these lessons help you say what you actually want to say, clearly and confidently.
Designed for real life, not just the classroom.
Most English programs focus on rules and memorization. At The Port of Conversation, we focus on something more important: connection, confidence, and communication.
Whether you're just starting out or trying to move from “good enough” to truly fluent, our unique mix of community and courses helps you make real progress — and enjoy the journey along the way.
Here’s what makes our program different:
Expert Guidance
You'll have access to teachers, fluent speakers, and structured learning paths - but without the stress of exams or grades. It's learning in a more human, encouraging way.
One Space, Everything You Need
Practice. Learn. Connect. Everything you need to improve your English is in one place - and it works across desktop and mobile, so you can bring it with you whereever you go.
