About the Program


LPP's Pairing Program works by finding you a language partner who has compatible language interests. For instance, one partnership might be between someone who is a native English speaker and wants to learn Spanish and a native Spanish speaker who wants to practice his/her English.

After being paired by LPP's database, the partners will meet for the first time at the Public Service Center (PSC) to exchange contact information and go over the program. Then, they will arrange to meet once a week for about an hour to practice their conversational skills in Spanish and English. In addition to acquiring language skills, both partners also learn more about each other's cultures, thus promoting understanding between different peoples.
