Hi, I am a master's student looking to improve my French, and I would say my French really sucks so please be patient with me and don't laugh too hard when I make mistakes. I am a native Mandarin speaker and speak fluent English (went to college in the US) so I should be able to help you improve either or both languages.

I have never done tandems before, but I imagine we will be each come prepared with some topics to discuss about or some materials (vocabs, grammar points etc.) and talk in one language for one hour and switch to the other for another hour. Of course it doesn't have to follow this pattern, just some thoughts.

Since it's summer and I don't have much to do right now, and I might go on trips or even go back home later, I would prefer my partner(s) to be flexible if we have to switch to Skype from time to time. I will also try my best to accommodate your schedules. I am primarily looking for exchange partners for the summer, but if everything works out it would be awesome to do it more long term.

If interested, please reply/pm me with a little about yourself and how you envision our tandem could work, looking forward to getting to know you!
