This pilot study, called Project SPEAK!, will evaluate whether a videoconference-based social intervention can improve overall well-being in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Participants will be grouped into pairs of one older adult with a person who wishes to improve their English speaking skills. The pairs will have structured conversations designed to strengthen language speaking skills. The one-hour video calls will occur once a week for two months. At the start and end of the study, researchers will use questionnaires to measure changes in psychological well-being, loneliness, and depression.
