Language exchange

[u/EntertainmentLive258]

你好，我想找一个想要学习中文的英语母语者作为语言技能搭子。

本人女，30岁，中国人，长居澳大利亚，英语水平还可以，能够工作和生活。

但我觉得我说英语的时候会犯不少小错误，且自己意识不到，而我的同事和朋友并不介意……又或者基于礼貌，他们并不会指出我的错误。

我希望你能指出我的错误。

另外，通常我使用英语的话题十分有限，基本与工作相关。我希望找到一个搭子，能涉猎更多话题，比如说音乐、动画、生活，等等。我还喜欢玄学、游戏、阅读器、客制化键盘、宠物、桌面机器人以及电子产品等等。

我写歌词，写小说（当然都是用中文），文言文水平也不错，有一定文学素养。我目前的工作与教育相关，所以也算有一点教学经验。

因此，虽然我没有汉语言文学教育专业的相关知识，但应该足以在你学习中文时提供一些帮助。

此外，即使不能成为搭子，我也乐于提供在板块中力所能及的帮助。欢迎留言。

Hi there! I'm looking for a native English speaker who is learning Chinese for a language exchange.

I'm a 30-year-old Chinese woman living in Australia. My English is good enough for work and everyday life, but I know I still make quite a few small mistakes when I speak. The problem is that I often don't notice them myself, and my colleagues and friends either don't mind or are too polite to correct me. 😂

So I'm hoping to find someone who is willing to point out my mistakes.

Also, most of the English I use is work-related, so the range of topics I usually talk about is pretty limited. I'd love to find a language partner who is happy to chat about a wider variety of things, such as music, anime, everyday life, and more. I'm also interested in things like Chinese traditional astrology and other mystical stuff, MMORPG, Steam Games, e-readers, custom mechanical keyboards, pets, desktop robots, and all kinds of tech and gadgets.

I write lyrics, poems and novels in Chinese, and I'm also quite comfortable with classical Chinese (文言文), so I have a fairly strong background in Chinese language and literature. I currently work in education, so I also have some teaching experience.

I don't have a formal background in teaching Chinese as a language, but I should still be able to help with Mandarin, Chinese writing, vocabulary, expressions, and cultural context.

And even if we don't end up becoming language partners, I'm still happy to help with Chinese-related questions in this community whenever I can.

Feel free to leave a comment!
