Tuesday 14/07 : Palau Alameda
19:30 – Language Exchange
21:00 – Start of the match
Upon arrival we welcome you and explain the concept. You are free to join any group of language learners.
Language exchanges (Mon–Thu) are free with LE membership. A drink is mandatory at the bar, which provides us with the space to host the event.
The process is very simple. At the mayority of the exchanges, you will receive a sticker on which you write down your name, your native language and the language(s) you would like to speak. You can search for people whose native languages corresponds to the languages you would like to practice. You can always ask our crew for help if you have difficulty finding another suitable participant. During the few events where we do not work with stickers, our crew assigns the tables so everybody can join a suitable group of participants. A few minutes later the event turns into a multilingual social gathering where you can meet international friends.
The exchange on Friday is a bit different. In umbracle at the entry you will receive a flag of your country /native tongue and you will search for a particpant who speaks the language you would like to practice. That way the diversity of our participants is shown through the flags.
Most events are free of charge, except for our Friday events, as we organize special activities such as painting and ceramic classes. These events involve some costs for materials provided by VLE. A drink is mandatory at the bar during free events.
Description of every exchange:
We recommend every exchange but one can suit you more than the others. It can depend on your interests, the area you live in or where you like to gather with friends.
We will explain the main differences between our exchanges:
All the languages can be spoken during our languages exchanges. Usually there is a great amount of participants who speak English, French, German, Italian and Spanish. Sometimes other languages can be spoken if both native speakers and language learners are present during the exchange. At some exchanges, there are for example participants who speak Portuguese, Russian, Chinese etc.
Everybody is welcome at our exchanges. We don’t divide people into groups according to their proficiency. Proficiency is not a determinant factor during the learning process of foreign languages. If you like practising learning and speaking in various languages, our events are the place to be. Everybody, from native speakers to beginners, is welcome.
You go to our site valencialanguageexchange.com and chose a date that suits you in the calender. You fill in the form of the event and you are ready to participate. Not all our events require registration.
