🍂 ELC Connect – Fall 2025 | The Adventure Continues...
Hello friends,
We’re excited to invite you to ELC Connect – Fall 2025, our free online English conversation and culture hour! This semester, we’ll explore different cultural themes each month while practicing English together in a fun and relaxed setting.
🎲 Up next... Special Event: Dungeons & Dragons Session #2
📅 Friday, September 26
🕐 1:00–3:00 pm (EDT – Virginia time, USA)
📍 Discord
Our Dungeon Master, Alexia Wolff, will lead the second session of our Dungeons & Dragons series. These special sessions are hosted on Fridays via Discord.
🔑 How to join:
  • Please reply directly to this email if you’d like to participate.
  • The Discord invite will be sent only to those who respond (to help manage participant numbers).
  • If you joined a previous session, no action is needed—you’ll use the same Discord link.
This fall, we’ll focus on building characters and learning roleplay basics. In the spring, we’ll dive into collaborative storytelling and gameplay!
(See attached flyer for details.)
💬 Weekly Conversation Sessions
In addition to our themed events, we hold weekly conversation sessions as part of ELC Connect:
📅 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Thursdays (September–November)
🕛 12:00–1:00 pm (via Zoom)
These sessions are a great way to practice English, meet new people, and connect across cultures.
👉 Special note for native English speakers: We’re seeking volunteers to help facilitate conversations in breakout rooms. If you’re interested, please contact me!
