A Language Learning Tool

An easy-to-follow guide helping you feel confident and comfortable when tutoring non-English speakers.

 

This booklet provides ample speaking practice exercises & will help the learner build confidence in expressing thoughts in a second language.

Welcome Study Buddies!

This is a program that pairs the learners of two different languages. You both get to teach your language, learn the other language, and make a friend in the process.

How does it work?

Find a partner who speaks a language you want to learn and who wants to learn your language and arrange to meet each week for an hour.

​

Follow the outline. Spend half the time on one language then switch roles and work on the second language.

​

It's Easy!
