What happens at a language table?

What happens at a language table?

Language tables are held at Kline Commons and entail about an hour of casual discussion during meal times, where students interested in a language get to know each other and practice colloquial conversations. They are held by the tutor of the language, and although sometimes professors join the table, it is a very low-stakes and fun setting to immerse yourself in a language, its culture, and the foreign language community at Bard.

Scroll through the list of language tables below or visit the FLCL calendar to view language tables, tutoring sessions, and more!
