My Language Exchange Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• It's asinine to require French at jobs where you don't speak it

  Check InterPals.net or mylanguageexchange.com for a penpal. They speak to you English, you speak to them in French, that kind of thing. Source: about 1 year ago

• How do I Learn Uyghur

• Looking for a French Penpal

  You can try My Language Exchange or Students of the World, and there’s also ShareAmi where you can be paired up with a French-speaking senior who needs a buddy, but I don’t know if they have a penpal option or whether it’s all video-based. Source: over 1 year ago

• Places to meet other Spanish learners?

  There's a website called mylanguageexchange.com and I am sure others where you can meet up online for video chats or in person in the same city. You put in your native language and what you are learning so you would watch with native Spanish speaking learning English. Source: over 1 year ago

• For Germanic languages, what are techniques for improving word order fidelity while speaking?

• Reflections on five years of learning Japanese

  Like flinters17 said, if you live in a somewhat populated area you can look on sites like meetup, conversation exchange or mylanguageexchange and filter by location. Quite a few Japanese people in their mid-late twenties do a working holiday, so if you live in the UK, Ireland, Australia or New Zealand, you can look for areas where Japanese people congregate and look for events there. Whenever I'm back home in... Source: almost 2 years ago

• I am head over heels in love with Spanish. I've been learning it for a little over 5 years now, but I have never spoken to a native speaker. Just haven't been able to overcome the anxiety of initiating the conversation. Any advice?

  I have had really good luck with mylanguageexchange.com. I have 5 friends in other countries now. We alternate half an hour English and a half hour in Spanish. It's fun because they want to speak English as much as you want to speak Spanish. Source: about 2 years ago

• Learning by watching/listening

  My memory isn't what it used to be, but I think I'm slowly improving by trying a little of everything. I take a couple of courses I paid for, try to listen to podcasts at or a little above my level (National Geographic has a great one on Curiosidades de Historia, Dreaming Spanish, Spanish Language Coach, 1001 Reasons to Learn Spanish, Hola Spanish, etc.), occasionally watch a TV show that looks good in Spanish but...

• How would you learn Spanish if you had to start over?

  d. Language exchange/tandem: e.g. https://mylanguageexchange.com/ & https://www.tandem.net/ Spoken Spanish is not my focus, and I don't expect to be able to travel before 2023 anyways. There is a Spanish community in a larger city nearby so real life tandem might be an option when we are allowed to meet in person again. Source: over 2 years ago

• Tandem fucking blows. After trying to stay positive I realize it really is a 4th rate dating app

  If you are looking for talks on the spur of the moment, you might have better luck with the Lingbe app. I've had pretty decent success there, with everybody I've talked to actually interested at some level in language learning. One negative is that if you want to talk for free, you will need to also talk (about half the time) to people in your native language to get points. So this is fine, but what is suboptimal...

  That being said, talent isn't everything. I'm not gonna invalidate what you said but it is very much practise practise practise, and use it or lose it. Find a language partner you can practise with. I used to use mylanguageexchange.com to find language-learning partners, and they don't care if you're a n00b or not. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Dude literally asked personal questions like "Are you a virgin?" Got blocked then made a new account like dude... I'm so disheartened too. I met this guy on a exchanging languages app!

  You should report them to the app, because this behaviour frustrates me, I am on such apps and if people start presuming you are going to flirt because of your gender and only guys on there are looking to date or whatever else, then it defeats the whole purpose of the app. I like mylanguageexchange.com its a really ancient looking site but its rare you get people like this on here majority are very serious.
