As a global language learning community, we have given ourselves three guiding principles.
1. We are here to learn
On Tandem we meet to learn languages together, to help and support each other on our language learning journeys. Tandem is not a dating app. While many of us have become friends along the way, we ask those who just want to meet new people and have no interest in learning to look elsewhere.
2. We celebrate our diversity
We come together from all around the world and value our different cultures and backgrounds. We meet each other with kindness, respect and curiosity. We use authentic profiles. There is so much to learn from one another! Any discrimination towards race, ethnicity, religion, disability, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, neurodivergence or age have no place in our community.
3. We share generously
We are generous with our knowledge and grateful for the generosity of others. To preserve this spirit, making commercial offers to other Tandem members by promoting a product, service or social media channel is not allowed, unless you are an official partner of Tandem.
We take care of each other and stand ready to protect our community from those who act against our principles. If you come across a member who is behaving in a way that is not in line with one of the principles, please report them. Thank you for your help!
