The Club has been established by Canadians and people who have lived in Canada. Their goal is to promote relaxed social contacts, Canadian style, among their members.

At present the club has approx. 100 active and 40 passive members. The club's name is sometimes a little misleading – actually the club is an English speaking club for all friends of the English language, irrespective of nationality or religion.

The English Speaking Club of Bern was founded in 1978 as a meeting point for English speakers from all over the world. Members are mixture of native (UK, USA, Canada, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand South Africa etc.) and non-native speakers of English from all over the world, who want to speak or practice English.

Fribourg Expat Woman's Group

Toastmasters’ Club Bern
Since 1924, Toastmasters International has helped millions of men and women become more confident in front of an audience. Their network of clubs and their learn-by-doing program are sure to help you become a better speaker and leader. Why pay thousands of dollars for a seminar when you can join a Toastmasters club for a fraction of the cost and have fun in the process?
