Tandem Tool

Tandem is a content management system that allows students to practice their oral skills by doing synchronous pair tasks. Its aim is to facilitate the practice of language by pairs, giving a purpose to the conversation and an extra motivation for students.

  • Sometimes, online students are not willing to interact since there is not always a reason for doing so.  However, Tandem gives them that reason to talk and interact, since they both need to work together to reach a specific goal.
  • Another advantage of the tool is that teachers do not need to be there, and students can practice as much as they want to.
  • Tandem is a useful system to give students speaking practice outside the classroom.
