My language exchange partner is
I’m currently focusing on improving my ASL and German, and practicing my Romance languages. Unfortunately, I don’t have time to respond to everyone, so I try to find people with similar interests, language level and goals.
My learning goals
Maintaining my stronger languages and getting my questions answered as well as having basic conversations in my newer languages. I want to learn about your culture and work best with those that understand their language’s grammar, despite being a native.

No one is perfect, but if I had to choose then maybe someone who can constantly remind me to study words/sentences, won't get mad if I mess up, and will stick with me till the end.
Speaking is the fastest way to fluency
Practice listening, improve your pronunciation, and learn to speak a foreign language with native speakers – no matter where you are.
