The Language Exchange Commons is accessible 24/7 via the Community tab on the Homeroom dashboard for learners with access to live public scenes. This space allows you to connect with other Members, share insights about your learning progress, discuss helpful resources, and practice your conversation skills between live classes with speakers from various language programs.
🛑 If you are unable to see the Community tab or the Public option within that tab, your current contract may not include access to these features. For any concerns regarding this, please reach out directly to your program administrator or our Support Team.
Overview
Server Location and Connectivity: Hosted on a large US West (USW) server. Users joining from the Japan (JP) server may occasionally experience connectivity issues due to the geographical distance.
Capacity and Instance Creation: The space accommodates up to 14 people. A 15th person entering will spawn a new instance and will be alone until others join.
User Mixing: All levels and languages are mixed. Both corporate learners and individual subscribers have access and may interact with each other. Please be friendly and respectful.
Staff Presence: Staff members may occasionally be present to host meetups or feedback sessions. Guides may also use the space for informal speaking practice when they have a no-show class.

Why is the scene capacity limited to 14 participants?
Why is the scene capacity limited to 14 participants?
The limit of 14 participants per scene is necessary to ensure server stability. Since users connect to the same server from various global locations, a higher number of users would overload the server, leading to an increase in disconnections and lag issues.
