Conversation Partners
SSL's Activities Coordinator will try to find a conversation partner
for you.  Conversation partners are usually UNLV university students who want
to learn your language
and can
help you practice English at the same time. This is an excellent way
to improve your English outside of class and make American friends.
Volunteer Opportunities
SSL has contacts with organizations in Las Vegas who need volunteers.
There are many different opportunities which you can match with your
interests. You can work with children, with the elderly, in a museum,
in a garden, or with animals. This is also an excellent way to practice
your English and learn about American culture.
Free Conversation Classes
SSL has a program in which we teach Americans and high level international
students how to teach English. Those future teachers need to practice
their teaching with real students, so SSL offers free classes to
SSL students and other internationals in Las Vegas to give those future
teachers the practice they need. The classes focus on conversation
and don't have homework. The free conversation classes are a fun way
to get extra speaking practice and meet other students.
 Computer and Listening Rooms
SSL have Computer Labs (at Test Center and Lounge), which can be used for a laptop room and a listening room.
You can do your homework on the computers, and you also have free e-mail and fast Internet access.
