If you have some time off in the spring or summer, there is a fun immersion program called "Explore" that you may wish to... explore.
If you don't have that kind of time, there are a few websites that permit a Francophone that wants to learn English to be paired up with an Anglophone that wants to learn French. Using a service that you agree upon together, such as Skype for spoken communication or e-mail for written communication, you will be able to practice your speaking skills and your writing skills using these free services.
Please note that these services are not affiliated with your college and they are open to anyone on the Internet. As such, it is possible that you will run into someone that is more interested in dating (or some other ulterior motive) than improving their French. Be aware of this possibility and find a different person if you suspect your conversation exchange partner has motives other than improving their language. |

Meet People "In person" You can perform a Google search to find free places that offer opportunities to people to practice their English with other people that wish to practice their English. Use the search engine of your choice and enter the keywords "Practice English in ___________" where the "____" is the name of your city. For example, "Practice English in Montreal" |

Online I've used this site with my regular session students in Cégep with a great deal of success. Students reported that it was easy to find a language partner. |
I would really appreciate any feedback from students that have used any of these services. Please let me know how you did.
