Learning languages outside the classroom: Unite! Online Language Café

The UOLC is an extracurricular peer-to-peer activity to use, practice and deepen language knowledge in a safe environment.The room will be regularly open for two hours every second Wednesday 16:30-18:30 CET.
Unite!’s multilingual and multicultural environment provides an excellent setting for informal language learning which, based on language learning theories, can occur unconsciously and incidentally outside the classroom setting through interaction with native speakers or exposure to authentic language. The Unite! Online Language Café (UOLC) is designed to do just that - easily accessible and voluntary. It fosters informal interactions to promote and encourage students to use and learn all Unite! languages. A virtual space, where meetings are planned, the UOLC is run by students for students since 15 th January 2025.
