Someone with patience, because I am very beginner with Spanish! I’ve been trying to learn for about a year, but am hoping for someone who wants to speak both Spanish and English with me so I can learn.

My learning goals

I have many plans to visit Mexico soon, and my partner’s family is Mexican. I would like to be able to converse with them and ideally become fluent someday.
