Language partner - English/Portuguese

I'm looking for someone to exchange knowledge in languages, English/Portuguese. I noticed that is virtually impossible to get fluency in any language without practicing with a native speaker. I'm proposing a manner to improve our skills in our target language. I'm a Portuguese native speaker looking for someone who want to learn Portuguese and is willing to teach English. But I'm talking about something serious, something like 1 or 2 hours a week. We could make a 30 min conversation section and I would record our chat and after send you yours mistakes and so on.
