ONLINE LANGUAGE CAFES FEBRUARY–MAY 2025
Format and languages
We are organizing Language Cafes both online through Zoom and on campus at Stockholm University. The languages and meeting format (on campus or on Zoom) are decided by the language competences and the meeting preferences of the students volunteering as coordinators (language supporters). All languages are welcome and we hope to see many of your students and staff signing up!
Signing up as a participant
Students and staff who are interested in participating for language practice sign up through our registration form https://webforms.sprakstudion.su.se/languagecafe/. All participants sign up individually using their official university email address, and receive a confirmation link by email. They need to click on the link to confirm their registration.
Participant sign-up is open all term through the registration form, so we encourage you to share the link to it on your university website. More information can be found on our website https://su.se/sprakstudion/languagecafe/.
Please note: Those who signed up for the autumn term’s language cafes also need to fill out the form above – the registration is valid for the current term only.
Signing up as a coordinator
Students who are interested in volunteering as coordinators in their first (or very strong) language(s) are encouraged to contact Språkstudion at info@sprakstudion.su.se for more information. Coordinator sign-up is open all term.

ONLINE TANDEM LANGUAGE BUDDY PROGRAM FEBRUARY–MAY 2025
Format and languages
Through our Tandem program, students can be matched with a language buddy to practise each other’s languages. It is not about formal teaching, but rather an informal language exchange for which they decide the methods and forms (such as how often they meet and for how long). The program is open to all students and members of staff at Stockholm University and our partner universities. All languages are welcome, and we hope to see many of your students and staff signing up!
Signing up for the Tandem program
Students and staff who are interested in matching with a language buddy sign up through our registration form https://webforms.sprakstudion.su.se/Tandem/. All participants sign up individually using their official university email address, and receive a confirmation link by email. They need to click on the link to confirm their registration.
Sign-up is open all term, so we encourage you to share the link to the registration form on your university website. More information can be found on our website https://su.se/sprakstudion/tandem.
Please note: Those who signed up for the autumn term’s Tandem program also need to fill out the form above – the registration is valid for the current term only.
Matching with a language buddy
Once the participants have registered, they will be placed in a queue. As soon as we find a matching language buddy, an email with contact information will be sent to the language buddies and they can start their exchange. Participants will state in the registration form if they would like to meet in person, online or both, and will only be paired up with a buddy with matching preferences. One person can have up to two language buddies, but not in the same language.
