Sarnia Language Exchange
About us
We are a community of Sarnia-Lambton neighbours who believe learning a language is the best excuse to get to know each other.
Sarnia Language Exchange
Our story
Sarnia Language Exchange started with a simple idea: put someone who wants to practise English at the same table as someone who wants to learn Spanish, and see what happens.
What happened was a community. Today we welcome newcomers, students, families, retirees and professionals every week, sharing languages, recipes, music and tips for living in the region.
Our values
Reciprocal
We all teach and we all learn. Nobody is just a student.
Respectful
Patience with mistakes and curiosity about differences.
Local
Made in Sarnia-Lambton, to strengthen our community.
