In Fall 2013 the English Conversation Partner Program will pair native speakers of English with international students for one-on-one weekly conversation. The program has two main goals: provide an opportunity for non-native speakers of English to practice conversation skills outside the classroom; provide an opportunity where all participants can cultivate intercultural connections. Students will develop a deeper understanding of their partner's home culture, country and language as well as gain a new perspective on their own culture, country and language.
