Conversation Partners
The Conversation Partner Program pairs American students, staff and professors at UNI with students in CIEP.
- Partners meet a minimum of one hour each week throughout the academic year.
- Students are required to speak English for one hour during the time they are together which provides them an opportunity to enhance their English skills in a conversational setting.
- Students share their culture while also learning more about American culture.
- Students can attend various athletic and cultural events with their conversation partners, make traditional food, visit local stores or watch movies together.
Applications for the 2023-24 academic year will be open in mid-August.
