Meet Nader
  • Civil engineer with 15+ years in road construction
  • Knows why some roads last 100 years and others fall apart in 3 years
  • Has worked on projects across multiple countries
  • Nader Badreddine
    Nader has spent 15+ years building and studying roads — the infrastructure that quietly runs everything. He knows what’s underneath the asphalt, what makes German roads legendary, and why the US keeps winning at road innovation. He’s coming to English Talks Club to talk about it — in English, with real curiosity.
What we will talk about
Did you know that 98% of roads get recycled? Old tyres, printer cartridges, even ash — it all goes back on the road. Roads are one of the oldest human technologies — and one of the most surprising.
Roads are everywhere — but how much do you actually know about them?
Join a session with our host Sandra – a photographer, a hiker, and an English language lover
In this expert talk, you'll:
✅ Find out how Roman roads were built — and why some of them still exist 2,000 years later
✅ Learn what happens to old tyres, printer cartridges, and plastic bottles when a road gets repaved (spoiler: they become the new road)
✅ Explore why German and Swiss roads consistently rank among the best in the world — and what makes them different
✅ Discover why the US leads in road innovation despite its infrastructure reputation
✅ Ask Nader your own questions — live, in English, with a real expert in the room
Entrepreneurs, executives, consultants, and specialists who want to keep their English sharp — and spend an evening with people worth talking to. B1+ means everyone in the room speaks English — from confident intermediate to fluent. No slow explanations, no basic vocabulary. Just a conversation.
