From my own experience, I want to create a place where people with a desire to learn foreign languages can learn more conveniently in their own surroundings. For that reason, I have been practicing and researching “tandem learning” since 2008. This website was created to introduce detailed tips for practicing “tandem learning,” based on my own experience. It can help those who are currently practicing tandem leaning as well as those who want to incorporate tandem learning into their own learning program. In addition, I hope to connect with those who have an interest in similar fields so we can share our experiences with tandem learning.
