- You learn by doing, through practice
- You speak from the first minute, without fear of making mistakes
- No books, homework or exams: real conversation in a real context

Cooking workshop in English for adults
At the FunTalk language centre in Barcelona we have a real kitchen, and it’s no surprise it’s many of our students’ favourite space. In the FunTalk kitchen, we get in touch with English by cooking together. We write the shopping list while discussing what to buy, what not to buy and why; we talk about where and how to get the best ingredients for each dish, how to tell a product’s quality, and so on. Finally, we make the chosen recipe and, of course, taste it!
In FunTalk’s English cooking workshop the culinary and language experience is complete, because we also discuss the taste of the dishes, how they were made, the ingredients and how to improve them next time. Yes, the whole cooking workshop is in English! But don’t let that put you off joining this great workshop, because you’ll be surprised how much food vocabulary you already know.
Elevator pitch
This English workshop for adults is a must for entrepreneurs and business owners who want to open up markets with foreign companies. We’ll teach you to present your business clearly and concisely with a short speech that gets straight to the point. The “Elevator Pitch” formula is used today at many business events for entrepreneurs and business owners. It’s about presenting your business, your product or yourself concisely and convincingly in three minutes. To do that, you need to be very clear about what you do, the vocabulary you use and how others see your business. How about practising all of that in English? Success guaranteed! Don’t wait any longer and sign up for our English workshop to prepare your “Elevator Pitch”.
Crafts workshop
Crafts are back in fashion, and at FunTalk we know how to set trends. The English crafts workshop for adults is your time: the time you need to relax, do something creative and practise English in a relaxed but effective way. We’ll show you the latest techniques and art trends while you improve your English and your creativity. You’ll live English by creating art projects, shaping ideas with recycled materials, drawing, painting and more. If you know painting is your thing, then your English workshop is Painting & Wine.
Public speaking and presentations
This practical and extremely useful English workshop develops basic skills we should all know and master, because they come in handy at countless moments in anyone’s life. Add the fact that the workshop is in English, and the value of what you learn multiplies. We’ll teach you techniques to speak in public correctly and confidently, and we’ll put them into practice so you feel comfortable in any situation where you need to present your ideas, work or projects in public.
Mindfulness workshop in English
Mindfulness is in fashion, and at FunTalk we like to be on trend! In this English workshop for adults you’ll learn to live life more fully, to live in the moment and to be aware of the present through reflective mindfulness practice. The mindfulness workshop also includes a group discussion at the end of each session, where we look at the benefits, body awareness and other aspects of mindfulness. All in English, of course.

Job interview preparation in English
Thousands of people go abroad to look for work every month. At the same time, many foreign companies, especially in Barcelona, are looking to grow their teams with English-speaking candidates. To succeed in either case, the best thing is to go into your job interview in English well prepared. At FunTalk we have native teachers with extensive experience preparing job interviews in English. During the interview preparation course they’ll teach you to present yourself as the right candidate for the job you’re applying for; you’ll learn to answer the typical interview questions fluently; you’ll pick up business vocabulary in English, and they’ll guide you on everything useful to come out of the interview with flying colours.
