Parlanchinglish – Club de Oratoria en Inglés

Parlanchinglish is a non-profit English-language public speaking club affiliated with Agora Speakers International, meeting every Tuesday evening at the Biblioteca Pública Elena Fortún in Madrid's Retiro district. The club challenges members to speak in public — and to do so in English — developing skills such as body language, message delivery, and verbal style, while simultaneously practising the English language. Weekly sessions follow structured Agora meeting dynamics with rotating roles: meeting leader, timer, and speaker. No prior English level is required; what matters is the desire to communicate.

Online practice in Madrid

In addition to offline public speaking classes, you can practice public speaking online from Madrid

Live speaking sessions with real listeners are available on speaking-club.online, even if there are no local public speaking classes nearby.
