Oldenborg Center at Pomona welcomes you to join its language tables. Converse in foreign languages at tables mentored by native and advanced speakers.
Spring 2026
Language tables will start on Tuesday, January 20 and continue throughout the semester whenever classes are in session. The last day of language tables will be Friday, May 1. 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
