Improving English
Couple weeks ago I signed up on Italki. Unfortunatelly I had not enough time to make language partners. You know, work, sport, friends... The time difference between countries neither did help.
That is why I thought about writting to italki community so you take me a hand, and correct every mistake I do, or how could I say something in a more sense way.
Although I did not found any language partners, I have not lose faith. So, if someone want to exchange some writtings spanish-english, do not doubt in contact me. Maybe we could set a topic, and we could freely write about it. I would glad to help you as far as I can.
So, Italki friends, be free to add me as friend or send me a message.
See you all!

Making new friends to share languages
Hi everyone! I writting to all of you because I've a need. To improve my English skills. Don't worry, no one told me "You'll be dead in a year if do not learn English". Maybe it's not a need but a wish. Let me ask you a question, Haven't you been on a situation where some tourist approaches you and ask something as simple as, What subway line do I have to take to go to Republic Square? Well, I've been there, and I have to acknowledge that is very embarrasing no to be capable of saying phrases with sense or not use more vocabulary than "go, left, near, there".
Some of you will say, Don't worry, it's not as diffucult as it seems. And maybe it is true. But is not easy to express yourself in other language than your mother tongue, when you learn that lenguage without been surrounded by it, and learning it in academies.
That's why I asked for new methods to improve my English. Some friend of mine, gave me a piece of advice: "Why don't you share your language?" And I told him, "How can I share it? Who would want for me to teach them some Spanish? I'm just a Spanish, I speak Spanish but I'm not a teacher". He told me, "Just find someone like you and talk about some topic you find in common".
There was I, searching on internet "share languages websites". And I was astonished how many results gave me back the searcher. That's how I found this Web, and I'm writting to you. It's unbelievable how many people want to learn some language by helping other people.
Well, I think it's time to present myself (after that long, and I hope not boring, writting). My name's Iker (No very easy to pronounce without hearing it, I live it for another day) and I'm 28 years old. I was borned and I live in Pamplona, a small city in the north of Spain. I'm just a common guy who wants to improve his English and teach Spanish in return. To be able to met new foreign people.
I like watching tv series, most in English because they help me with it. Sometimes I get mad because all the different accents in the world. But there is the fun. Get to understand all of them. I also like traveling, visit new countries, and sports in general.
I'm looking for met new English native friends, so we can share some writtings weekly or so, and chat sometimes, about any topic we could choose. Also get to speak sometime when we are able to maintain a conversation.
Well, I hope anyone haven't fell asleep. haha. Don't doubt in contact me or correct this writting if you find it understandable...
See you!
