TANDEM DE IDIOMAS

Hello girls!
Os comparto una información que me han proporcionado y que a todas os puede interesar: tándem de idiomas.
El tándem de idiomas se está haciendo todos los viernes de 19 h. a 21 h., en el bar El café del mercado (C/ Bracamonte, 6, Ávila). Lo único que hay que pagar es una consumición. Si preguntas en la barra te dicen que mesas son las del tándem, también va gente que quiere practicar otros idiomas pero la mayoría van para hablar inglés. Creo que no va a dejar de funcionar en todo el verano. De todas formas, si alguién tiene cualquier duda, o por si cambiasen de bar, aunque de momento no, informan en el Espacio joven Alberto Pindado (Ávila).
Have a nice day! :)
