A TWO-PART PROGRAM

The program is structured around two main axes

An individual focus :

Each student from BC is paired with a student from Quebec.
The paired students meet by videoconference at least twice a week, according to their own schedule.
Topics are suggested each week, with ideas for activities and challenges to guide the conversations.
Each meeting between the twinned students is conducted half in French and half in English.

A group focus :

An orientation session for BC participants will be conducted in French. Additional group activities amongst BC participants may be offered based on the motivation of participants.
Three group activities are held for all exchange program participants across Canada. These meetings are held in French and English on the Discord platform during the weekend.

A detailed schedule will be sent to participants before the start of the exchange!

I have a new friend! I love talking to her and we have already made plans to visit each other.

Fall 2021

I learned some new slang words, which was really fun for me. I never had the chance to learn things like this before.

Participant

Fall 2021

I am more comfortable in conversation, and I can say more difficult sentences now. I have found good friends in this program.

Participant

Spring 2021

With my twin, we talked about a lot of things such as the sports we played, school, the books we like to read, the games we like and the differences between BC and Quebec in general.

Fall 2021

It was cool to learn how normal things for me are different for kids in another province.
