Teachers can also find partners for their classes here or schedule language exchange "events". http://www.language-exchanges.org EPals is also a very nice site for all subjects, though they focus more on k-12. http://www.epals.com/ Todd Todd Bryant Language Program Administrator Dickinson College 717-254-8941 Fax - 717-245-1456 -----Original Message----- From: Language Learning and Technology International Information Forum [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of LLTI-Editor Sent: Thursday, September 21, 2006 1:59 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: #8329 penpal programs --- Forwarded Message from Helen Stapleton <[log in to unmask]> --- >Date: Wed, 20 Sep 2006 13:39:35 -0500 >To: [log in to unmask] >From: Helen Stapleton <[log in to unmask]> >Subject: penpal programs Hi, I was wondering if any of you could recommend a reputable, respectable foreign language penpal program?? I've been looking around online and they all seem to look kind of like mail order bride sites or kind of chatty. The languages we would need penpals for are Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Russian, and Spanish. BTW, I just joined this mailing list, so hello to everyone and I look forward to learning from your experience. Helen F. Stapleton Director, E.L.
