How about a networking night with a twist?
There are so many of our members who can speak not only 2 but 3, 4, or 5 languages. On Thursday 13 July, you will have an opportunity to participate in a language exchange event.
How it works:
You’ll have time to talk first with those who share your same mother tongue: be it Swiss German, German, French, Italian, English or any other language where we have at least 2 native speakers.
Then we will match you up – for example, a Swiss German with a French speaker to practice French. Afterwards, you’ll swap partners once more. This time, the Swiss German will help out the new partner to speak Swiss German or German and/or give some interesting language or culture tips.
A welcome drink – a choice of beer, wine or soft drink will be offered by the host.
Members: free of charge
Non-Members: CHF 25.00
Location: Fork & Bottle – Allmendstrasse 20, 8002 Zurich – a 3 minute walk from Zürich Brunau (S4)
Registration: Will open on 8 June when location has been reconfirmed

Event Host:
Rose Travers – School owner/language trainer
Rose has over 25 years experience teaching English in the Zurich area. When teaching on a private basis, she loves guiding students to figure out what strategies they can adopt to accelerate their language learning.
For groups, she prefers to facilitate conversation by reading the mood and changing dynamics to get people feeling at ease to ensure the communication flows. She has a knack, even when she’s not teaching, to get conversations going.
Rose became a solopreneur in 2020 and continued on thanks to the support of (her then boyfriend, now husband) Andrew. After 5 years, her non-brick & mortar school expanded and she eventually took on remote teachers based in both the Swiss German and Swiss French regions working in-company teaching business professionals.
She loves organizing events for the Zürich Networking Group and getting ideas off the ground.
