De quoi s'agit-il
A community of motivated people who are learning new languages.
We provide our members a platform to practice and hold conversations, build their confidence and improve speaking and listening skills, and of course meet new people!
Join us on Wednesdays for our weekly meetups and see our events in action!

[FR version] (http://www.language-exchange-france.com/evenements/)
We group 3-5 people who have two languages in common, first one being their native language and the other one they wish to practice.
We conduct a round of ‘language exchange’ in two phases of 10 minute conversations; one phase being in your native language and the other one in the language you would like to improve/practice.
We shuffle the groups and repeat the rounds after every 20 minutes for a total of one hour of our official ‘language exchange’ event.

Languages
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Languages are chosen based on the attendees’ preferences.
Usually groups are formed to practice English, French and Spanish.
Other possibilities include groups combining German, Portuguese, Italian, etc. as per the demographics of the particular event.

Side Note
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
During each event, the organizers and the members share quality time meeting and greeting new people, learning new stuff, exchanging experiences, etc. in an encouraging atmosphere.
In order to ensure a pleasant event for all, we highly encourage our members to keep the following points in mind,
If you can’t make it to our event, please do unregister from the event well ahead of time. This would help another one of our motivated members to participate!
[Note] We have a policy to temporarily ban a member for a month after three absences.
Our one hour events are timed and usually start on time. We encourage you to be punctual in order to maximise your ‘language exchange’!
Motivated people are free to form groups and continue their evening in any fashion they want after our official event concludes.
In rare cases if we find participants being intentionally disruptive like breaking away from groups, being offensive to someone, etc. the organizers have the right to issue warnings and/or removing the participant from our community.

Enjoy!

Rest assured, the organizers are always working behind closed doors; experimenting with new ideas, trying to make the events more fun, etc. The objective is always moving towards a better experience for all.
We thank you for your support, cooperation and contribution to our ever growing community!
Happy ‘Language Exchange’ :)
