Glad to direct the way for foreigners
I feel very good today, it just because of something that happed last night! I directed the way for a tow I gave directions to two guys, two foreigners.
I was on the subway to went going home after getting off duty last night. I practiced was practicing english English listening as usual, you know, listening to the a podcast through on my iPhone. And two foreign guys stood around me after a while. I really wanted to talk to them, you know, to practice my english, lol. but I thought that maybe that might be (yes, 2 thats in a row - they have different meanings.) impolite, because I didn't even don't knew know where they were from, and if they can could speak chinese. Chinese. So, I keep kept on listening to my English, not bothering the guys.
Then, I got off at the transfer station, and prepared to went go to the line 5. But I happed happened to found find that the tow two guys also wanted to transfer to line 5. And they were checking the ways through with (or, using) an app on there their iPad. Hh,Hmm... they seemed to unfarmiliar with Beijing. So, I came close to them, and said: "May i help you?" I could't believe they heard me right away. It was amazing, I didn't think my pronounciation was not good enough. Then, they said: "yeah". "Where you going?", I siad. said. They showed me the station that they wanted to be, go to, so I directed the way that to line 5, and said: "Go this way, you need transfer to line 5, and take 2 stations , you'll get there."
"Thank you!", one of them said. But I forgot to say "you are welcome" at that time, so I just make made a gesture, and then they moved.
It was really an amazing experience for me, it's seldom that I get to talk to some any foreign guys. make It made me very happy.
Note: to all Chinese students of English. You use too many commas! Don't be afraid of periods! Those are "full stops" if you are British. All things come to an end, and so should sentences.

I'm glad you were able to test out your skills,congratulations! I omitted some of your commas and added some suggestions in (). I hope my corrections are helpful. :)
