Martin_s   10 #2 Posted November 11, 2003 You might want to try talking to the Student Union at Sheffield University (not Hallam*) and see if they can help you get in contact with someone who wants to offer a quid pro quo... ie: they help with your English and you help them with your language.  There's a department in the University that deals specifically with this sort of thing... Modern Languages Teaching Center (I think) so perhaps that will help...  Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

vkrishv   10 #5 Posted November 11, 2003 Thanks Martin...  I am working and so can't attend Uni during the day time. Looking something in the evennings or weekends.  There should be some courses from Council isn't it.  Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Martin_s   10 #8 Posted November 12, 2003 Originally posted by Sidla I would have thought most universities have some sort of scheme. There's a difference between "thinking" that something exists and knowing... I KNOW that such a scheme exists at Sheffield Uni'...  Now if you know that Hallam has such a scheme I'm sure it'd be appreciated if you posted up what there is there.  Ta.
