Dear foreign friends,
Tired of studying grammar in the class? Eager to practice your language skills in a relaxed atmosphere?
Our Language tandem project is the best choice for you.
Tandem language learning is a method of language learning based on mutual language exchange between tandem partners. In a language-tandem, two students with different native languages communicate together as a pair in order to learn each other’s languages and to learn more about the other person and his or her culture. There is no schedule or strict rules. You can meet whenever and wherever you want, you can talk about books you have read or films you have watched, food you like, countries you’ve visited. The main objective is to speak both languages so that both partners can practice their language skills.
