Team Up for Multilingualism: Tandem Programme for A1+

The Multilingual Tandem course pairs participants from different countries who wish to learn each other’s languages. Through regular meetings, each partner acts as both learner and informal tutor. Participants agree on topics (e.g. films, food, travel, hobbies, holidays, daily routines) and on language areas they want to focus on (e.g. fluency, pronunciation of phonemes, specific grammar forms). The tandem pairs are accompanied by a tutor of their practicing language. They will meet up with the tutor at least three times and will get feedback from him on the reflection they write after each self-guided tandem session.
