My first attempt! I failed on my first attempt for making a Language Exchange. It was about two weeks ago. At that moment I got a partner on Italki and I thought that he wanted to speak in English, his native language, and in Spanish, because he was studying it, my mistake!. He told me that he did not like his native language and wanted to speak only in Spanish. It was a surprise for me, but I decided to continue the chat. Few minutes later I have noticed we had nothing in common like hoobies, favourite singers, ideas, so the conversation was not interesting nor fluent The worst was I felt that he did not appreciate my helping because he thought he had a very good level in Spanish, acctually I asked him "What are you looking for this chat as Language Exchange?", and he ansewred me "make friends around the world". I think this is not a bad thing, but being a partner for learning or practicing a new language is quit different, so I decided to go on, definitively I am not the person he needs!. I hope to get a better experience next time.
