Re: Find your language exchange/tandem partner in LAUSANNE!

Re: Find your language exchange/tandem partner in LAUSANNE!

Hi there, I am also from Vancouver and a Canadian Chinese as well. Want to learn French intensively. Have you got any tips which is a good school to go for group lessons? We just arrived from Holland this past weekend.

Re: Find your language exchange/tandem partner in LAUSANNE!

Hello there !

I'm not sure your request is still pending but, I'll try no matter what )

I came back from North America a week ago, after almost four months vacation. This experience was, obviously, a great way to improve my conversational skills, although now, I'm already missing talking in english !!

For that reason, I'm looking for someone with fluent english who wants to meet up one or twice a week to speak beautiful english. Otherwise, I would be very interested to be part of an english club or to work in english, as a volunteer.

Thanks a lot for your answer !

P.S. The "someone" should not be afraid of freaky french accent ^^

Re: Find your language exchange/tandem partner in LAUSANNE!

As this is a very old Thread and no-one seems to be able to read what the first poster said, I'm closing it. I appreciate that it would be nice to have a separate one for Lausanne but it would only work if it were a sticky and folk would adhere to the guideline. Anyway, each town, city, area would then want their own. Sorry guys.
