Team Up for Multilingualism: Tandem Programm for A1+ 26-27 S2 (Language course)

The Tandem Program 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).

Guidelines for possible topics will exist based on the contents/learnings of the national language courses.

Offered Languages:

• Portuguese
• Spanish
• German
• Italian
• English (just as a support language)

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/her on the reflection they wrote after each self-guided tandem session. The reflection can be done as a written feedback (100-300 words) or as a 3-5 minutes recording.
