LinguaMeeting is a platform that connects university language students with native-speaking coaches for virtual conversation sessions, aiming to improve fluency, comprehension, and confidence in a real communicative environment.
Your role is to guide conversation sessions in Spanish or another language with students, fostering a comfortable and motivating environment, gently correcting mistakes, and helping improve their communication skills.
Sessions are automatically scheduled by the platform according to your registered availability. You can modify your schedule in your profile if needed before the semester starts.
To connect, go to your coach portal, click on “Go to class”, and then click “Start”. This will automatically open the Zoom window and begin the session.
You must wait at least half of the scheduled session time. If the student doesn't show up, record the absence directly in the "Feedback" section of the system so it is officially documented.
LinguaMeeting or the course professors provide topic guides you can follow. If no specific materials are available, you can adapt the conversation based on the student's interests, always focusing on speaking practice. You may also review previous topics. To check what topics a student has already worked on, go to the “Courses” tab, find the corresponding course, and select the indicated university.
