Find tandem partners for languages practicing

www.language-swap is the first participatory and collaborative e-learning platform based 100% on actual practice. Language-swap is a learning method based on the setting-up of contacts between learners so as to enable the exchange of language skills. If, for example, you are a native English-speaker and you wish to practise your French, we put you into contact with French-speaking users who want to practise their English. You can thus choose to swap languages, with 30 minutes in English and 30 minutes in French, on the topic of your choice, as long as you respect other users, our codes of ethics and the way the site functions.

Our concept is based on the principles of setting up contacts between learners with matching profiles and of providing free access to flexible, modulated training which is 100% based on actual practice, with no constraints in terms of time, pace or place.

For us, it’s all about overcoming the difficulties inherent in conventional forms of language learning by offering an overall digital solution based on online sessions of practical training with native speakers and users with a very high level in a given language, who are eager to share their own language skills in exchange for receiving an equally rewarding input in another language.

It’s also a means for us to base the training on genuine communication between people, which should logically be the first goal of any use of a language. Our method thus allows each user to expand their personal networks and make friends or professional contacts throughout Europe and the world.
