"Hi all,
Just wondered who speaks to native speakers of the languages you're learning (German, French, Italian, Chinese, Russian etc.) to practise and learn the language that way?
I'm currently using http://www.easylanguageexchange.com/ to find language partners and have made a lot of great friends on there, everyone's really friendly and is a real confidence booster - is anybody else on there?
Thought this might be useful; in my experience practising and learning languages with native speakers is much better than reading a book etc.
What do you think?"
