EC Boston Conversation Partners Program Kick-Off Orientation

What is the Conversation Partners Program at EC Boston?

Conversation Partners is a unique EC Boston program that is designed to heighten cultural experiences and exchanges of students and community members alike. Students who want to maximize their English experience will apply for this program and be selectively paired with a native Boston resident. A successful match allows students to expand their grasp of the English language beyond the classroom and to become fully immersed in their new surroundings and to have an authentic Boston experience!

Conversation partner Volunteer Requirements:

Conversation Partner volunteers love Boston and are passionate about new cultures, languages and education. Volunteers must be able to commit to a minimum of 1 hr/ week and a 3-4 month period of time. Volunteers must be aware and accepting of cultural differences. Volunteers must commit to speaking in English 50% of the time with their partner and must honor meeting times and locations. If a volunteer misses 3 conversations or more, they will not be allowed to participate in the program. Volunteers must submit an application and agree to an interview with the Conversation Partners coordinator.
