NYU’s Office of Technology Services is thrilled to announce NYU Speaking Freely Online (SFO) for Fall 2015! SFO is an easy way to gain an introduction to a language, or improve your existing language skills. Users can find a language partner with whom to interact and converse, or sign up for a Coach-Led Session on a particular language.
The flexible structure of the Language Partner Program within SFO allows learners to interact with their partners on their own time, at their own pace, and either in-person or online. Coach-Led Sessions offer an more structured alternative with weekly 1 hour sessions held via NYU Google Hangouts. We’re excited to offer beginners, intermediate, and advanced level sessions in Mandarin, Spanish, and Arabic, and French during Fall 2015. These sessions will be facilitated by Coaches who are fluent speakers of that language.
To find a Language Partner, or to enroll in one of the Coach-Led Sessions, simply complete your profile in SFO. Beginning on Monday, September 14, you will have the opportunity to register for up to two language sessions of your choice. Classes will begin on the week of Monday, October 5, and will meet for 1 hour per week via NYU Google Hangouts for 8 consecutive weeks. For more information on class days and time, and to enroll, log on to NYU SFO by clicking here.

Happy Language Learning!
