Language Conversation Meetings
Hosted by UCSD International House
Full Schedule

The Language Tables are one of I-House's most popular programs! Each quarter a variety of language tables are hosted and attended by students, staff, faculty, and anyone from the public willing to join. The Conversation Tables bring together native speakers and language learners in an informal setting to provide an opportunity to converse in a foreign language. They are a great way for language learners to bring alive a foreign language and to meet native speakers. Individuals who would just like to learn a few words in the foreign language are welcome too. For native speakers this is a fabulous opportunity to encourage understanding of your culture and language and to get to know new people.  Better yet, there is no pressure since the meetings are completely casual.  All are welcome (including all levels of language experience). Email the International House for more information.
