    Your English is very good, perhaps better than some whose native language is English :)

    What are your hobbies?

    We may have to ban half of the posters, we wouldn't want for you to pick up on any bad English habits.

    Maybe we need a preliminary test before you can you them to train with.

    By the way, I think this will be a wonderful tool to help you learn the language. In writing it is easier because you will have time to understand the information at your own pace.

    Is it good or not if you are unfamiliar with this?
    I've just found this page to try to find people to talk to in English
    And I would like to practice by msn if it is possible
    What do you think? Thanks anyway!

    Lorenita, I'm in the United States, North Carolina specifically.

    Your English is better than most people on this forum! I think you can teach them the English language.

    lorenita when you sayimprove yourenglish I think some people think that you want to practice it on here by typing, but I think you mean by actually talking in person which is a good way to improve your language skills :)
    But I also think that anybody would be hesitant in talking to someone they have never met before over the internet.

    Hmmm well it is a tricky one, maybe you will find someone who will gladly talk with you over the internet, another idea might be to watch english TV programs or rent films and play them in english and repeat what they say, just throwing it out there, good luck anyhoo :)

    Hi again, lorenita!

    Unfortunately, this site is about typing questions and answers between people only. Also, once a thread has been started, things need to stay on the thread.

    However, I have been successful in posting links to sound files that are on other sites here. If you would like to record yourself and actually have other people hear you, that may be a way to do it.

    I also think that writing is a good way for a person to learn about speaking in a language better.

    What sort of things in music or the arts are you interested in? Do you play a musical instrument or sing?

    Thanks!
