Complete this form if you would like to improve your English conversation skills with an Upward Scholars volunteer in a more casual and friendly virtual or in person setting setting.
Once we receive your request, we'll do our best to quickly match you with a fluent English speaker to start your one-on-one virtual or in person English conversation sessions. Each weekly session runs between 45-60 minutes. Your conversation partner and you may choose to break that up into three 15- to 20-minute sessions a week.
Most conversation-only sessions take place via video conferencing or video chat (e.g., GoogleMeet, Zoom, Skype, WhatsApp). Please be sure to have access to video chat to start your conversation sessions. You
are welcome to choose an in-person session instead if this is what you prefer.
Spring semester: JANUARY - MAY
Fall semester: AUGUST - DECEMBER
