1. How do I find a language exchange partner?

If you are not a member yet, please sign up. Membership details are available at the top of the sign-up page.

The fastest way is to search the members database. You can easily find a suitable partner by specifying search criteria such as native language, practicing language, how you want to practice, country and even age range. You can then write an email directly from the site and arrange to practice through email, text chat or voice chat.
