I am learning German and would like to meet only female native German speakers that want to improve their English. I am married with two grown children and live in upstate New York, USA. It's pretty simple, I'm here only to learn German, that's it! :)

    These group classes are great, but why can't community tutors offer them too? Can community tutors offer group classes? It looks like only "professional teachers" can offer them. It seems like italki would let anyone that is on the platform offer a class. Those of us using italki on a regular basis and paying for our classes would like to have all the options available, which means taking classes from a community tutor instead of a professional teacher if we want to. We are the customers, after all. :)

    Last night when I got to sleep, it was almost 2 a.m. Were I working? Or were I studying? No, not at all. I was shopping online because there was a shopping festival.

    Hi Natalie - I do have some time available, but mostly on the weekend. If you have the same availability, please let me know. I know it can be difficult with scheduling sometimes. I’m not a teacher, so it won’t cost anything. 😀 Thanks!

    I’m not happy about the changes either. Guess I’ll check out Tandem too. Thanks!

    I have been with italki for years now. I have met many people in the past, it was great, but now? It’s not so easy to find language partners like it used to be. I will have to find something else for that, unless italki makes a change.

    i have used italki for around 5yrs now. In my profile, I specifically say that I’m learning German, only want to talk to native German speakers, and will only speak with women. I have had many men contact me that aren’t even German speakers. I block them immediately and don’t respond to them. Luckily, we can do that. You will always find creepy guys (women too) online. 😀

    I always watch the videos to choose a tutor/teacher. I want to see if I can understand them or not. It would never work if we can’t communicate.

    The sentence is correct grammatically "Can a Christian lose their salvation?", but I have never seen a verse in the Bible that states that. :)

    A bank is also the land that slopes down to a river, stream, or lake.

    I have been learning German now for about 4 years. I started with a tutor from Italki. I have had at least 4 teachers here. I use teachers mostly to keep me learning and accountable. It was helpful for me to start with a phrase book with audio. This way, I learned many words and word order together. It can be frustrating, but you can do it!

    It sounds like a dumb reason, but I saw a commercial for a river cruise in Germany. At that moment, I told my husband, that we were going there one day and learning German! I’ve had lots of crazy ideas, so the husband just shook his head smiled. That was 5 years ago. Since that time, we had a german foreign exchange student, we went to Germany, and I’ve been learning German ever since. I’ve met so many German friends on Italki, it’s been great. One has even visited me here in the USA with her family. German has given me more than I ever imagined. This is my first foreign language and won’t be my last. I only wish that I wasn’t in my 40s when I started.
