Languages at UAL

Language Exchange

The UAL Language Exchange scheme is an opportunity is for you to practise a language you are interested in with another student in a relaxed and informal way.

After the popularity of the student language exchange matching scheme in term 1, we have opened a Student Language Exchange Board You can offer and request any language on the board for a fun and social way to exchange languages.

You may need to use your UAL log-in to access the board on Padlet. Log onto your Padlet and search for 'Student Language Exchange' to access the board. If you have any issues using this board, please email language@arts.ac.uk

Languages, Arts and Culture

LAC courses will no longer run from the next academic year onwards, i.e. from autumn 2022.

We will continue to support our multilingual environment in a variety of ways, including through language exchanges among the UAL community.

While we cannot recommend alternative modern languages course providers, there are many across London that you will find easily through an internet search. Examples of reputable central London providers of both face-to-face and online classes include: City Lit and IH London. IH London are offering UAL students a £15 discount on courses with code UAL15.
