Improve your language skills in Language Cafés!

ISYY’s Language Cafés are starting again!

Do you want to learn new languages, brush up your old skills and meet new people or teach your native language? We have the perfect opportunity for you!

In a Language Café, your peers and friends are your teachers and at the same time, they can be your students. When participating in Language Café activities, you can also earn ECTS credits by either attending or organising a Language Café (UEF students only) and by submitting a few small assignments to Moodle.

Interested?

Join the Language Café info session on Wednesday 18 September from 8.30 am to 9 am on Google Meet to find out more! You can find the link to the meeting from the 'Read more' section below.

Leader training is right after the info session on Wednesday 18 September from 9:15 am to 10:15 am on Google Meet so see you there! Participating in leader training does not bind you to anything. However, all Language Café leaders have to attend the leader training, so you can just attend the training and decide after that whether you want to become a leader or not. If you cannot attend the leader training on Wednesday but you would be interested in becoming a leader, please contact ISYY’s Coordinators of International Affairs via email.

Available Language Cafés are listed on ISYY’s webpage linked below on Monday 23 September. You can join the available Language Cafés as a participant via a form on the same webpage.
