Hi, my name is Ahmad, I'm an Indonesian who is currently live in Melbourne for the next 6 weeks. I'm looking for a chance to socialize outside my daily routine activities.
What would you like to experience at Language Connection?
hi Ahmad, welcome to Melbourne Raspberry Jam. I hope you enjoy the meetings and that you'll find this group helpful with getting the most from your Raspberry Pi. I develop using Java ... and installed it on my RPi to see it if works. It did. However, it is fairly heavy weight for a lower spec machine like the RPi ... cheers andyg (http://hackmelbourne.org, @geekscape)
Language Connection is a not for profit organisation that runs events for people learning languages. This includes language exchanges, conferences, workshops and social events. Our weekly events allow native speakers from different languages to come together and have conversations in their native and second languages.
For example, if you are a native speaker of Mandarin and you want to improve your English, you can exchange with a local Australian who is learning Mandarin.
You teach me English, I'll teach you Mandarin!
We have multiple tables open to everyone from different levels and run several events per week catering for different languages and different availabilities.
At our events you will:
Speak more of your second language
Teach others how to speak your first language
Make new friends
Improve your conversational ability
Feel more confident
Understand more about foreign cultures
Some events incur a small entry fee which is used with renting spaces, providing snacks and to cover general operational costs.
