PRISM Connections is our one on one relationship building program at PRISM, a way to give the 13,000+ international students that reside in Pittsburgh an opportunity to befriend a local Pittsburgher.

Our main objective is that you make time to meet with your student once a month, and according to the type of connection you choose, both of you can:

1) Build a true Friendship.
2) Work on your English conversation skills (English Partner).
3) Go through our Mentorship curriculum which will prepare them for life beyond academia.

English Conversation

 

 

Many international students arrive in Pittsburgh with room for improvement with their English skills, which is why we offer our Thursday evening English conversation group. If you want to help students and scholars in this area, we are always looking for new volunteers eager to assist students with pronunciation, speaking clearly, and sentence structure.
