Language Exchange
Get free language practice by exchanging your time teaching your native language for
time learning a foreign language.
Are you interested in finding someone to trade time practicing and teaching a language?
This is where you can find partners for language exchange. A language exchange is a great way to get practice in a foreign language. How do you do a language exchange?
- Find a language exchange partner and arrange a time to have a conversation.
- Spend 5 minutes speaking only in your native language
- Spend 5 minutes speaking only in the language you are studying
Language exchanges are free and very informal. If you and your partner are intermediate or advanced level, you can spend a longer time speaking in each language.
You can also practice your writing by becoming penpals. You can write messages to each other through the italki chat or italki message system.
