Skype not only enables family and friends to stay in touch, but is also a tool for language exchange and chatting with penpals.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The best way to speak a foreign language fluently is to practise with someone whose native language matches your target language. This is known as a language exchange or tandem. Therefore, if you cannot have an in-person tandem with someone, a call with a native speaker via Skype can be a good alternative. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">This is how you can learn idioms and work on your accent or pronunciation. It is also a great opportunity to connect with someone from another culture and share stories about what it is like to live in your country.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Skype has a huge community \u2013 with millions of people from all over the world having a Skype account, it is a very accessible tool for learning a language. And if your language exchange partner doesn't have an account, it's really easy for them to sign up.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><b>Language exchange via Skype<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3321 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/sla-basel.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/skype-2.jpg\" alt=\"Skype 2\" width=\"940\" height=\"626\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sla-basel.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/skype-2.jpg 940w, https:\/\/sla-basel.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/skype-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sla-basel.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/skype-2-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sla-basel.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/skype-2-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">With this tool, you can now have group chats with up to 50 people.

As long as you have an internet connection, using Skype is completely free. You do not have to pay anything to record Skype calls either. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><b>Online language courses via communication tool<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Finding a language exchange partner via this communication tool can of course be a bit difficult. On the other hand, talking to a stranger can be a little daunting, especially if you are used to face-to-face meetings. However, with an online language course through a language school, you can achieve the best results. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Since the pandemic, we have been offering as <a href=\"http:\/\/sla-basel.ch\/en\/\"><strong>SLA Basel<\/strong><\/a> too <a href=\"http:\/\/sla-basel.ch\/en\/online-language-course\/\"><strong>Online language courses via Skype<\/strong><\/a> and so far our language teachers and course participants have had the best experiences.
