'''Tandem language learning''' is a method of [[language learning]] based on mutual [[language exchange]] between tandem partners, where ideally each learner is a native speaker in the language the other person wants to learn. The tandem language learning experience steps away from the traditional learning pedagogy, removing the teacher-student model.

==History==

The concept of "Languagelanguage learning by exchange" or the "Tandemtandem Approachapproach" isencompasses basedvarious on variousteaching systems of teachingfor exchange students abroad, such as:including partner learning, "peer teaching", tutoring models, and "Zweierschaften" (Steinig) or 'one-on-one discipleship'.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.linguee.com/german-english/translation/zweierschaft.html |title=zweierschaft - English translation – Linguee |website=Linguee.com |access-date=2016-01-20}}</ref>

==Benefits==

===Improvement in language skill===

At firstInitially, professionalthere discussionwas primarilya centredsignificant focus on the question of the effectiveness of tandem inlanguage comparisonlearning withcompared to traditional language teaching methodologiesmethods. ThisTo initiatedinvestigate anthis, investigationa carriedstudy outwas conducted in 1983 at the Madrid Goethe-Institute,. in which tandemTandem pairs, a tandem course, and teacher-steeredguided phases were connected with each otherinterconnected, and the linguistic progress of the participants was compared to that of a control group, who were also preparing for the '[[TestDaF-Institut|Zertifikat DaF]]'." ResultsThe showedresults indicated that the Tandemtandem participants gotdemonstrated better results in listening comprehension and speaking skills, whilealthough they were less successful in reading and writing. Overall, even if their performance in the certificate as a wholecertification was juston aspar good aswith the control group. Another advantagebenefit observed was the mutual mistake correction of mistakes, which was fosteredfacilitated by increased languageexposure intaketo the language.{{cn|date=November 2024}}

== Cormier Method ==

DevisedThe Cormier method, developed by Helene Cormier, a language teacher at the ''Club d'échange linguistique de Montréal language school'' (CELM), theis Cormieran methodinstructional isapproach basedthat on instructionspromotes in-tandem whichlearning among small groups of learners with different mother tongues interact for in-tandem learning tonative occurlanguages.<ref>{{Cite book|title=Learning culture and language through ICTs: methods for enhanced instruction|date=2009|publisher=Information Science Reference |editor-last1=Chang |editor-first1=Maiga |editor-last2=Kuo |editor-first2=Chen-Wo |isbn=9781605661667 |___location=Hershey PA |oclc=430984238 }}</ref> The participantsmethod developfocuses conversationson thatengaging areparticipants aimedin toconversations consolidateaimed developedat skills in the areas ofstrengthening listening, comprehension, vocabulary, and pronunciation skills.

ParticipantsDuring of thisthe language exchange, canparticipants experiencehave howthe opportunity to interact with native speakers interact through text, voice, and video chat. TheEach sessionssession taketypically aboutlasts roughlyaround one hour, in which thewith participants speakspeaking in one language for thirty minutes and then switchswitching to the other language for the followingremaining thirty minutes. Additionally, through thisThis experience theallows learners have the chance to learngain somethinginsights frominto their peers’peers' culturecultures bywhile using the target language accordinglyappropriately.

ThereTo areconduct fiveeffective recommendationssessions thatusing shouldthe beCormier takenmethod, intothe accountfollowing inrecommendations ordershould tobe develop sessions with the Cormier method.considered:<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://sites.google.com/site/mullais/Home/misc/cormier-method|title=Cormier method - mullais|website=sites.google.com|access-date=2018-02-14 |first=Mullaiselvan |last=Mohan}}</ref> These include:

# Properly utilizing a timer to manage time allocation.

* Utilising the timer accordingly

*# Taking chargeresponsibility offor yourone's own learning when speaking in youra second language

*# Being sensitive to your partners'the needs of partners when speaking in yourone's own language

# Focusing on communication rather than constantly correcting grammar.

* Not correcting grammar all the time, but striving for communication

*# Being considerate toof others

Advantages of the Cormier method include the opportunity for focused practice in small groups, pre-designed lesson plans and engaging activities to enhance motivation, real-time communication with native speakers, and the ability to access sessions from anywhere with an internet connection. A virtual timer helps manage and allocate practice time for each participant.

Advantages:

* Small focused groups allow all participants to practise and develop close relationships

* Pre-designed lesson plans and engaging activities stimulate participants’ motivation

* Real-time communication with native speakers of your target language is arguably more beneficial than any textbook or pre-recorded media

* Can be accessed anywhere with an adequate internet connection

* Virtual timer manages and allocates time for each participate to practice

Disadvantages:

* Only suitable for intermediate and above levels

* Native speakers may struggle to assist learners’ if they have no teaching background

* Learners from different educational backgrounds and knowledge may hinder communication

* Accessibility in certain countries

* Practice vs Progression &nbsp;

As this method is primarily for practising, it should not be the main source of language learning and should be seen as a review or a tool that helps learners improve their language learning skills.

However, there are some disadvantages to consider. The method is more suitable for intermediate and advanced learners, as native speakers without teaching backgrounds may struggle to assist beginners. Additionally, participants from different educational backgrounds and levels of knowledge may encounter communication challenges in communication. Accessibility can also be an issue in certain countries.

Cormier’s method is a simple approach to e-tandem learning that has clearly had success, particularly with the use of Skype. Implementing such a method is possible with relative ease, but there are drawbacks as previously discussed. However, with an abundance of new technologies emerging, different and improved approaches to that of Cormier may have even greater success in the future. These tools could be utilised to incorporate language-learning beginners, as well as improve upon the accessibility to learners in countries where Skype may not be available. Alternative digital tools such as Google Hangouts, Viber, ooVoo, WeChat and many more means that e-tandem learning and telecollaboration will be an area of language learning that continues to grow and prosper.

AsIt's thisimportant to note that while the Cormier method is primarilybeneficial for practisingpractice, it should not be relied upon as the mainsole source of language learning. andInstead, it should be seen as a review or asupplementary tool thatto helpshelp learners improve their language learning skills.

The Cormier method has demonstrated success, particularly when utilizing tools like Skype. Implementing this method is relatively straightforward, although the discussed drawbacks should be taken into account. As new technologies continue to emerge, different and improved approaches to tandem learning may further enhance its effectiveness. Alternative digital tools such as Google Hangouts, Viber, ooVoo, WeChat, and others can broaden access and provide additional opportunities for e-tandem learning and telecollaboration, leading to continued growth and advancement in language learning.

== Drawbacks to tandem language learning ==

Tandem language learning is in theory a great ideaconcept that reapsoffers variouspotential linguistic and cultural benefitsadvantages.

The design of tasks and integration of online language interaction within the learning process and curriculum can significantly impact the effectiveness of tandem language learning. Poorly designed tasks and a lack of pedagogical leadership can diminish the value of the approach for both students and teachers.{{sfn|O'Dowd|2013}}

Technology also poses challenges. Certain conferencing technologies, like [[Skype]], may result in miscommunication due to non-alignment of visual input and output. Students may appear socially absent or interrupt the usual process of indicating social presence, affecting communication. Misusing technology can lead to exclusion from the conversation.

* '''Cultural issues:''' Tellescan implies thatarise during tandem programmesprograms when comparing cultures,. studentsStudents may share theirexpress subjective opinions and reinforce intercultural [[stereotype]]s that maystereotypes, createcreating a hostile discourse and interruptdisrupting the flow of the conversations. To this end, he suggests that withoutWithout teacher interventions, tele -tandem interactions “maymay fall intobecome shallow performances ofthat sedimentedrely andon pre-givenpreconceived representations of selfoneself and other” others.{{sfn|Telles|2015| p=1}} ThisPreconceptions tallies with O’ Dowd’s views who sustains that preconceptions ofabout the other learner's culture can affectalso learners’impact proactive attitudes and participation levels of participation in the exchange.{{sfn|O'Dowd|2013}}

# Insufficient knowledge: Native speakers may lack sufficient knowledge to teach their own language to others. It may also be very challenging and time consuming for students to be methodologically and pedagogically apt to design meaningful learning experiences.<ref name="Drummer" />

# Error correction: Novice learners speaking in a foreign language during tandem programmes may make mistakes which provoke interruptions from the language experts that aim to correct the error.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Py|first=B|date=2000|title=La construction interactive de la norm comme pratique et come representation|journal=Aile|volume=12|pages=77–97}} As cited in {{harvtxt|Cappellini|2016}}</ref> Such interruptions may hinder the flow of the conversation, disturb the fluency of the novice speaker and produce further foreign language anxieties.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.idyoma.com/blog/2018/7/17/best-way-to-learn-spanish|title=The Best Way to Learn Spanish: A Process That Works for You|work=Idyoma|access-date=2018-07-20|language=en-GB}}</ref>

Addressing these challenges requires careful consideration and pedagogical support to ensure that tandem language learning maximizes its potential benefits while minimizing potential drawbacks.

* '''Task design''': &nbsp;If the online language interaction lacks proper integration within the learning process and the course curriculum, displays no pedagogical leadership and has carelessly designed tasks, the value of tandem language learning can be downplayed by both students and teachers alike.{{sfn|O'Dowd|2013}}

* '''Affordances of technology:''' Technology can sometimes come in the way of successful online intercultural exchanges. {{harvtxt|Lewis|2017}} argues that there may be a non - alignment of visual input and output when using certain conferencing technologies such as [[Skype]]. Consequently, students will appear to be socially absent from the conversation which will bring about miscommunication. Moreover, the affordances of [[Teleconference|teleconferencing]] can undermine actual communication by interrupting the usual process of indicating social presence that includes looking directly at the interlocutor. Hence, if students by mistake signal themselves as socially absent from the other teleconference participants, it can contribute to their exclusion from the conversation.

* '''Cultural issues:''' Telles implies that during tandem programmes when comparing cultures, students may share their subjective opinions and reinforce intercultural [[stereotype]]s that may create a hostile discourse and interrupt the flow of the conversations. To this end, he suggests that without teacher interventions tele tandem interactions “may fall into shallow performances of sedimented and pre-given representations of self and other” {{sfn|Telles|2015| p=1}} This tallies with O’ Dowd’s views who sustains that preconceptions of the other learner's culture can affect learners’ proactive attitudes and levels of participation in the exchange.{{sfn|O'Dowd|2013}}
