Stockholm University has started its online Language Cafes and Tandem Language Buddy programme for the term (February - May 2025) and we are all invited!
Through the Tandem programme, you can be matched with a language buddy to practise each other's languages. Your language buddy is a native-level speaker of your target language and vice versa.
It is not about formal teaching, but rather an informal language exchange for which you decide the methods and forms (such as how often you meet and for how long).
The programme is open to all students and members of staff at CIVIS universities, thus all languages are welcome.
*registrations are valid for the current term only, so you have to fill out the form each term.
Practise your language skills and cultural awareness by talking to native speakers and other learners, in an informal setting.
The cafés are run by student native-level speakers on a voluntary basis. No credits are given and no teachers are present, unless they are learners, too. You are welcome to participate on a regular basis or drop in spontaneously.
The Language Cafés are organised both online (via Zoom) and on campus at Stockholm University. The languages and meeting format are decided by the language competences and the meeting preferences of the students volunteering as coordinators (language supporters).
All languages are welcome!
The registration form is open all term, so go ahead and
More information and the current Language Cafe schedule can be found on Stockholm University's Språkstudion.
Students who are interested in volunteering as coordinators in their first (or very strong) language(s) are encouraged to contact Språkstudion for more information. Coordinator sign-up is open all term.
