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 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.

Painting & Wine is an exclusive FunTalk activity to socialise in English and live the language while you create your own painting. FunTalk offers a painting workshop in English in a space where you can enjoy a glass of wine or the drink of your choice, practise English and share your love of art.

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.

Your most frequent questions.

Which English workshops for adults does FunTalk offer?
Cooking (with International Food Nights), Painting & Wine, crafts, mindfulness, public speaking and presentations, elevator pitch and job interview preparation in English. They all revolve around a real activity: you learn English by doing, not studying.
Do I need a minimum level of English to sign up?
No. The workshops are adapted and personalised for all levels. In several activities there are also mixed groups of native speakers and English learners, so you practise with a mix of cultures and languages that speeds up learning enormously. You'll be surprised how much vocabulary you already know.
How much do the English workshops for adults cost?
The workshops for adults are included in the English course and aren't usually offered separately. They don't have a fee or schedule separate from the course. Ask FunTalk about the activities planned for your group.
Is the whole workshop in English?
Yes, entirely in English and led by highly experienced native teachers. That's what makes it work: you live the language in a real context while you cook, paint or present, instead of studying it from a book. The learning by doing methodology is 100% effective.
What's the English cooking workshop like?
At FunTalk we have a real kitchen, many students' favourite space. We write the shopping list together, talk about ingredients and product quality, make the recipe and, of course, taste it: all in English. The International Food Nights let you discover different cuisines from around the world as part of the course activities.
What is Painting & Wine?
An activity exclusive to FunTalk to socialise in English while you paint your own picture with a glass of wine (or the drink of your choice). Mia, an English teacher with an art degree, guides you step by step through the creative process until you finish your artwork at the end of each session.
How many people are there per group?
Small groups of at least 4 and at most 8 people. That way everyone takes part, speaks and gets personal attention in every session. Places go fast, especially for the cooking and Painting & Wine workshops, so book ahead.
Are there workshops focused on work?
Yes, three: elevator pitch (present your business or project convincingly in 3 minutes), public speaking and presentations, and job interview preparation in English. They're ideal if you're looking for work at international companies or want to open up markets abroad: you'll go into your next interview or meeting calm and confident.
