Hello! I am an oil painter, art teacher and the founder of a classical art atelier. My husband and I are considering a place in Italy where we can live part time and I can have another workshop teaching base. We enjoy traveling to Italy and I would like to learn the language better and be more comfortable conversing. We have relatives in Italy I’ve never met since my Dad is Italian. I’m definitely a beginner, I’ve used Dualingo for about a year, my English is US West Coast accent neutral.

I'm eager to practice spoken and written German, in exchange for spoken and written English. I have an undergraduate degree in English language and literature, and can be helpful in gaining mastery of written and spoken English.

Hola, mi nombre es Jay. I'm studying Spanish (mainly Latin American Spanish). I'm getting better at reading and writing Spanish but I'd like to learn how to better hear and speak Spanish. At this point, I'm perhaps at the low-intermediate stage but I want to progress.

[これはAIだ] 私は英語を母語としており、外国語としての英語指導の資格を持っている。今は日本語を勉強中で、もっと友達を増やしたいと思っている。友達の多くが関西地方にいるので、もし知っていたら関西弁にも興味があるんだ笑。I am a certified (TEFL) English teacher living in Oregon, USA. I teach English to Japanese students of all ages! I love meeting new people and hearing about different cultures and experiences. Right now, I'm in Nursing School (看護学校), but I want to continue improving my language skills. I am active on LINE and WhatsApp too, and can meet on Microsoft Teams or Zoom!よろしくおねがいします

Hello, I am a native English speaker seeking to learn Japanese. I live in the Boston area, am engaged, and work as a programmer. I studied Japanese intensively during college, but since then I have not had much opportunity to practice speaking Japanese, but I would love to continue to learn the language. こんにちは、僕は日本語能力をレベルアップしたいアメリカ人です。大学生時代はインターンシップのため、日本語を本気で勉強したんですが、最近は日本語で話す機会があまりなくて、言語交換をしたいと思っています。よろしくお願いします。

Hi there, I am a proficient Spanish speaker looking to maintain/improve my skills and help others do the same in English. I learned as an exchange student long ago and have had some opportunities to practice, so I’m not completely rusty! I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi everyone! My name is David. I’m currently a student at Temple University studying Sports and Exercise Science. I have an immense passion for languages and have since I was little. My mother tongues are American English and Jamaican Patois. I recently found out that my paternal side of the family has roots in France which inspired me to take up French as my second language. I can't wait to connect with native speakers and practice my French until perfection!

Hi everyone. I am interested in practicing Spanish with a native Speaker. I can also help people practice their English, and Russian as well. I have a Spanish course that I am doing that requires speaking practice and your website was suggested as an option.

Hi! I’ve been using Duolingo for a couple months and would like to practice and get better. I am a business owner and work with Spanish speaking individuals. I’m hoping that trying to hold conversation will help us both improve.
