Description
Language tandems are partnerships where two individuals, each fluent in different languages, collaborate to learn each other’s languages. Typically, they allocate equal time to each language, promoting balanced learning. This approach emphasizes mutual autonomy, with both partners taking active roles in teaching and learning. Beyond language proficiency, tandem learning enriches cultural insights, as participants share aspects of their native cultures, traditions, and perspectives. The rise of digital platforms has expanded this concept globally, enabling virtual exchanges and connecting partners across continents. For instance, the Tandem app connects over 30 million members worldwide, supporting more than 300 languages, including indigenous and sign languages.
