Which Program Should I Register For?

TandemPlus has two major programs to choose from.

Those organized by you on a volunteer basis

(Face-to-Face and Peer Language Partnership)

At the beginning of any term (Fall, Spring, Summer), you can create or update your F2F account on our matching website (tandem.umn.edu). You will create or update your profile and indicate which languages you speak and are learning and what classes you are taking.

If you are willing to converse virtually online via Skype, Zoom, WhatsApp or another tool, be sure to mark that correct box on your profile. For some languages, this is the best way to find a partner.

Once we have matched you with a partner, you will receive an email from us with your partner's name and email address.

Now it is your responsibility to contact your partner and decide how often, when, and where you will meet. See "I have a partner. Now what?" for ideas of how to work with your partner.

At the end of the term, all of the TandemPlus partnerships will officially end. If you register again during the next term, you will be matched with a new partner.

You will need to register and update your profile every term you want to participate.

Those organized by your instructor for your whole class

(Class-to-Class exchanges)

Your instructor will give us a class list with email addresses.

You will receive an email from TandemPlus asking you to sign-in to our matching website (tandem.umn.edu) using that same email and create a profile.

We will match you with a partner.

After receiving an email from us, you can login to your C2C page and profile at tandem.umn.edu to find your partner's contact information.

Your instructor will tell you when and how often you should converse with your partner.
