Oldenborg Center at Pomona welcomes you to join its language tables. Converse in foreign languages at tables mentored by native and advanced speakers.
Fall 2025
Language tables will start on Tuesday, September 2 and continue throughout the semester whenever classes are in session. The last day of language tables will be Wednesday, December 3. Check our website periodically as we add more languages throughout the semester.
We encourage you to read our Frequently Asked Questions to learn more about the program and policies and procedures.
Beginner days are available for Chinese, Japanese, German, Russian, Spanish, and French every Wednesday. We have extra support on these days for those language learners who are just getting started.
We are always looking to add more languages to our schedule. Are you interested in volunteering to host an additional language? Email oldenborg@pomona.edu
