Language Resource Center - Cornell University

When there's something strange in your language class, who you gonna call?

The LRC is open all summer long. Check our website for summer conversation hours (starting in June) and language learning support.
Enjoy your break, and make sure to visit the LRC when you're back on campus!

Starting today (5/11), the Language Resource Center will be open Monday-Thursday from 9am-4pm and Friday from 9am-3pm. We are closed on weekends.
Stop by for a quiet place to study or to say hello!

Finals season is here! Just in case you're wondering, this is who you're getting language teaching and learning support from at the LRC.

While the students were sloping, we were learning! Our LRC Spring Workshop featured presentations by three of our amazing language faculty about their latest projects, and a fascinating look at accommodating color vision deficiency in the language classroom.

Thanks for a great semester. We'll see you in the fall!

สวัสดี! 👋 That's "hello" in Thai, our Featured Language of the Week!
Spoken across Thailand and in Thai communities worldwide, Thai is known for its beautiful script and musical sound. 🎶

Fun fact: Thai is a tonal language, meaning the pitch used when saying a word can change its meaning.

We're starting off May with a bang. Two weeks ago, our SCI teachers from Cornell, Columbia, and Yale met here at the Cornell LRC to share ideas and best practices for teaching in a distance learning environment and to enjoy each other's company in person!
