Do you want to improve your Spanish conversation? This is becoming an increasingly popular choice thanks to the popularity of the language exchange programmes available in Madrid. The idea is fairly simple: a group of people from the most diverse countries gather in a room –usually located in a bar- and, while having some coffees or beers, they speak about subjects they find especially amusing or interesting to learn about.
The first advantage of this method is its flexibility, as long as the participants are the ones who decide how to focus the chat; the second is that these exchanges are free, so you will only have to pay for what you consume; and the third is the opportunity it offers to meet people from different nationalities and to get to know their culture. In short, it’s a great chance to complement your Spanish classes with some conversation in a relaxed atmosphere.
