How to find a penpal? Hello! I'm currently not fluent in Korean (to the point I can't write this in Korean) and I lack of time so I'm having a really hard time trying to find someone to exchange messages with. I'm not asking this question in order to find a penpal, but in order to get ideas about how can I find a penpal. I tried on Italki many times but they always end up abandone me so I'm seriously starting to feel frustrated. Please help me because I really want to get fluent and I feel exchanging messages it's actually a really effective method to improve since it has helped me a lot while learning English. I'm studying Korean on my own. I use the ttmik website and watch their youtube channel as well, but since I don't have any penpal I can't practice and I tend to forget what I've learned. If you can't recommend me a way to find a penpal it would be nice too if you could give me some advices on how to learn without a penpal (besides keeping a diary). 감사합니다.

yes.. I can understand how difficult to study on your own. yes.. I've also same experiece when I decided to study in English. only speaking. In my case, I had a good reading skiil and listening skill. but I wasn't able to speak and write fluently. I was't able to even find a penpal friends. I've also studied in english on my own. and then.. I finally singed up for the converstion course at English language institute. well... If you aren't able to take some conversation classes, how about write a letter on italki writng practice. If you write what you'd like to say to penpal friends, some Korean people may reply it. When you write this, please say like that " I'm writing a letter to you guys. so Please, reply to my letter in Korean! " Maybe, I think that you can get the good results although you don't have a specific penpal friends.! I hope it helps!

If you really want to find a penpal, you can contact some websites for penpal like http://www.penpalworld.com http://www.hipenpal.com/new/penpal.php If you just want to improve your Korean, I'd like to help you. You can send messages to me with messenger and I will review and correct them.
