Hello all,
Just found out that our partner class in Madrid will not be able to
participate in a virtual exchange project this semester and am wondering
if anyone might have a colleague to recommend (Latin America or Spain)
whose Business English students might like to work with our Business
Spanish students on resumes, cover letters, advertising, etc. Topics
flexible as long as they are business-related so American culture course
might work too.  We usually meet synchronously during class but
asynchronous and synchronous pairwork outside of class time would work
too.

PROFILE
Topics: Business: resumes, cover letters, getting job, advertising
Level: intermediate
Ages: 18-23 university
Number of students: 25
Class meets: MWF 9-10am EST
Tools: AIM or Skype, blogs, discussion boards, Polycom videoconferencing
Dates: NOW til December w potential for next term/year.
   
I've looked through Mixxer and IECC.

Many thanks in advance for any leads you might forward,
