Conversation Partners Program is designed to help non-native students gain confidence in their English-speaking abilities and acclimate to American culture. Native English speakers are matched with non-native English speakers for informal, one-on-one conversations. By practicing English outside of the classroom environment, non-native students will find that this is the quickest way to improve their command of English. Moreover, non-native students will be able to participate more actively in the classroom. At the same time, both native and non-native speakers will expand their cultural knowledge, make friends, and build a network of professional contacts.

How Conversation Partners Program Works
Non-native students are matched with native students for informal, one-on-one conversations in English. Partners must commit to meet independently at least six times per semester for an hour each meeting. You and your partner will decide when and where to meet and what to discuss or do. Throughout the semester, CPP will also host social events, which all participating students are invited and encouraged to attend.
