Language Exchange/Intercambio:
an enjoyable opportunity to improve your Spanish and help someone else improve their English.
The Learning Center will match you with a student or staff member and you take it from there, arranging weekly meetings at a time to suit you both. During the pandemic all intercambios have been taking place online, but we hope to resume in person meetings soon. Needs a commitment of at least 3 months.
Please note that off premises in-person meetings with students under 18 years require parental approval.
What people say....
A one of a kind opportunity to connect with the Oaxacan community in a very special way. I really look forward to these exchanges.

My intercambio was how I came to know and love Oaxaca - it took me beyond the tourist surface and I began to feel connected.
And it was great fun too! It stopped being a formal exchange years ago: now we're friends for life.
