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.
Language exchange partners are people just like you! Search through the list and start making friends around the world.

大家好！我是日本人。我是一所高考的补习班的教师。当我还是学生的时候我非常讨厌学外语。可是现在我非常喜欢学外语。我想改善日本的学生们学习外语的方法。为此我每天都在亲自研究。我也打算将来教外国的学生们日语。我的爱好是学外语，跑步，看中国到历史电视剧（特別是清代），武术和古董收藏。 我已经学了一年汉语了，但是我的汉语的水平还是不行。 如果可以的话，我们一起互相学习吧！我们可以一起聊天儿！
