Become a Conversation Partner

Save to Favorites

The Conversation Partners Program matches internationals with native or near-native English speakers for language practice and cultural exchange in a relaxed and fun atmosphere. The program provides an opportunity for conversational English to take place in one-on-one or small group settings and can be a valuable resource for internationals who are hoping to improve their English language skills. Native English speakers and internationals alike can benefit from the program by becoming a friend to a person from another culture and learning about that culture in a personal way.

Participate in the Conversation Partners Program
The Conversation Partners Program is open to everyone - community residents, immigrants, refugees, students, scholars, and family members in the State College, PA area. After Conversation Partners are matched up with one another, they typically meet for about one hour per week at a location and time of their choosing.
