Taster Seminar

Would you like to learn more about languages and cultures? Then our digital taster sessions might be just the right thing for you!

In May and June 2020, we held a series of digital taster. Each week focused on a different language or topic. The sessions were free and anyone could join via the link provided. There was also a chance to ask our academics questions!
