My language exchange partner is

I would say my tandem is someone that is around my age range that way the relatability is there. Someone that is interested in learning English or Spanish and willing to teach me how to sound more like a native versus a book, to be able to hold convos. :)

Ideal language community partner

I would appreciate it if they are somewhat close to my age (20-30 years old). More specifically, I just want a partner who can help me get a better grasp on the language without judging my accent and mispronunciation too harshly.

My learning goals

I would love to one day be fluent, but right now I’ll settle for being able to hold a simple conversation and navigate the country on my own.
