My language exchange partner is

Someone who’s open-minded, a bit witty and funny. They keep the conversation flowing, ask good questions, and don’t panic when things get a little chaotic or off-topic. Patient, a little nerdy, and not afraid to sound silly while learning.

My learning goals

Fluency, confidence, and zero fear when speaking — that’s the goal. Spanish already lives rent-free in my head, so I might as well make it official.

"I hadn't learnt English for 15 years and only a year ago I was A2, or rather holiday English. Now I'm preparing for the C1 exam! So if you want to brush up on a language, Tandem is the perfect app for you."
