Bilingual tandem
For you ?
Anybody who wishes to improve a foreign language can participate in a tandem programme. It consists of a bilingual learning partnership where each participant teaches his own first language. In theory, the program is open to learn the following languages: French, English, German, Spanish and Italian; but other languages may also be provided.
Although all speakers can benefit from such a programme, we recommend that you be at least A2 in the target language and C1 in the first or second language.

What for ?
- to establish – along with your partner – a specific work programme corresponding exactly to your needs: what should you work on, when and how often;
- to improve more specifically your listening and speaking skills, but also your knowledge of grammar and vocabulary;
- to get to know not only your partner’s language but his or her culture and way of life;
- to develop a new understanding of your mother tongue, to create new experiences in pedagogy.
How ?
- «In tandem», you meet regularly with your partner. You learn his or her language ; he or she learns yours;
- time should be equally divided between the two languages ;
- you choose the objectives you want to achieve and work on subjects that interest you ;
- it doesn’t cost anything as each participant exchanges his or her linguistic expertise.
