How to conduct a speaking club without a hitch?

If we talk about participants of a usual speaking club, we will mostly see people who are quite motivated and inspired as speaking clubs are often attended by someone who likes English and needs more practice.

In order to live up to participants’ expectations, it makes sense to announce the level of language proficiency they will probably need to feel comfortable and contribute to a discussion freely and meaningfully before the meeting. Also, to implement a personalized approach while conducting a speaking club, a teacher or some other person who holds it needs to select the topic of the discussion quite carefully. Learners may feel a bit bored seeing such  topics as ‘Travelling’, ‘Shopping’, ‘Leisure Time’, etc. The content of the discussion based on these topics can be really interesting and useful but as far as the title is the first thing a participant can read, it is vital to attract their attention with a non-trivial and intriguing phrase, for instance, ‘Inglorious Basterds – Villains in the Modern Cinema’.
