On May 31 from 18:18 to 20:20 Speak-Dating, a marathon of communication in seven languages will be held in the TSU Research Library pavilion.

This is the second event of such format held within the framework of speaking clubs.

Moderator: Sebastjan Jemec.

Language proficiency level – B1 and above.

Registration required

“Speak-Dating format implies switching conversation partners in certain periods of time,” explained Elena Tsukanova, Head of the TSU International Resource Center. “The participants indicate what languages they speak by attaching stickers displaying flags of different countries, thus they determine what language to speak when switching partners. We also decided to allow more time for each round of conversation to make communication more comfortable.”

Questions for each round cover a variety of topics: travelling, traditions and holidays, unusual jobs, etc. The participants will communicate in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, and Russian – for non-native speakers.

Program:

18:00–18:18 – choosing stickers

18:18–19:19 – Speak-Dating

19:19–20:20 –Tea & Coffee break.

Entrance to the pavilion is through the New Building of the Research Library.
