# What is the difference between a lesson and an event?

**Lessons** are video recordings and workbook materials you can do in your own time. Lessons are designed to help you learn vocabulary, practise pronunciation, and prepare language for your next conversation.

**Events** are hosted by English Coaches, our Community Experience team, Big Sisters, and members within our community. They are conversations that allow you to meet and speak with other ladies. Read the event descriptions to find out the topic of conversation, and what you need to do to prepare!
