What is a language exchange?

In this group, a language exchange is a casual and enjoyable way to meet new people and learn a new language over a drink! To truly grasp the concept, it's best to experience it firsthand rather than reading about it.

Join us at 6pm to engage in language practice while the groups are still forming.

===== EVENT FORMAT =====

Upon arrival, you will be provided with a badge indicating your native language and the languages you're interested in learning. Place the badge on your chest with your native language on the right and the languages you're learning on the left. Then, mingle with others and exchange languages!

What to bring: Pen and paper, along with a positive attitude!

Age Group: 18+

===== FREE BEER AND PIZZA FOR FRIENDLY VOLUNTEERS! =====

We are seeking friendly volunteers who would like to assist and welcome new members to the group. As a volunteer, you'll enjoy complimentary beer/drinks, food (such as pizza wedges), and the company of our welcoming team of volunteers. If it's your first time attending, you are welcome to apply as our volunteers often consist of newcomers too :-)
