Language Tables

Fall Language Tables Begin Monday, September 2nd

**Be sure to check which dining hall your table is located.**

Co-hosted by faculty and students, weekly language tables offer regular conversational practice with native speakers and language learners of all proficiency levels. Language Tables are held in the following languages:

  • Amharic
  • Arabic
  • Chinese
  • French
  • German
  • Hindi-Urdu
  • Italian
  • Japanese
  • Korean
  • Russian
  • Spanish
  • Vietnamese

At these informal, drop-in sessions, participants come together to talk, learn, practice, and build community. Language Tables can also serve as tutoring sessions for anyone who needs support in their coursework. All in the Vanderbilt community are welcome to join any time, and no signup is required. Fall semester Language Tables and tutoring services begin the first week of September.

If you are interested in participating as a co-host or want to ask a question, please contact Professor David Johnson, Language Table Coordinator
