Do you want to have an American friend ... practice your English ... and learn more about American culture?
Ask for an American language partner, and the ELI will try to connect you with a University of Delaware student. There are many students at the University who also want to meet and get to know ELI students, practice their foreign languages skills, and learn about your culture.
Language partners usually meet once a week for an hour or so. You might meet for coffee on Main Street or check out a UD sporting event together. Some language partners may even be studying your language, and you can help them. You may find yourself not only practicing each other's language, but also discovering new ideas about culture, music, current events, and campus life. Often this leads to the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
Here are some photos of language partner activities at the ELI.
