The Chinese program matches USC students with native Chinese speakers who want to practice their English. While the native Chinese speakers help the students with their Chinese, USC students are given the opportunity to return the favor by helping native speakers practice their English. The time, place, and how to meet, in person, telephone, Skype, Zoom, etc. are arranged by the paired students.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any questions, please email Christopher Magriney at
