Spanish Language Table with faculty fellows Óscar & Lidia

Are you taking Spanish, or took it some time ago, and want to practice your Spanish skills in a very relaxed environment? Are you a native Spanish speaker, maybe feeling a bit lost in translation and needing to reconnect? Do you want to meet other people in the house (and former residents too!) who share your interest in the language and culture? We will be in the private dining room on Fridays from 6:00 to 7:00ish pm. Of course, you are welcome to bring in your dinner from the adjacent dining hall and to eat with us! 😉 Too busy on a Friday night? Stay for as long as you like! Just fifteen or twenty minutes every week will make your Spanish shine! We're BYOT (bring your own topic) to the Spanish Table. Or simply chat about your day and your experiences at Penn. From beginners to native speakers, everybody is welcome!
