Hi!
My name is David - I'm originally from Brisbane, Australia, and I love to learn languages. I work as an English teacher in Ankara (Turkey), and tutor online. I'm happy to help you directly with English, through my teacher profile here on italki.
I also co-host a language podcast called Slovak Snack:

I enjoy cooking, travel and playing music. I mainly play guitar, and write/perform my own music whenever I can:

Nice to meet you!
ABOUT BEING LANGUAGE PARTNERS: I often answer questions on italki and make the occasional correction, so the simplest way of getting help from me is to simply follow my answers and corrections. I may be on the italki chat, so it is perfectly fine to say hello if you see me.
Due to time, email replies will be slow. Social emails from people I don't know (eg. "Hi, how are you?") will be ignored - sorry! I do pay attention to the active members on italki, so what you do on italki tells me how sincere you are.
If you are not a paying student with a booked session, please do not expect me go on Skype/MSN to chat with you for free.
It is OK to contact me directly, but I'll assume you've first read my profile and understood what I've written.
