Thank you italki

Seven days ago, I saw the advertisement for italki on YouTube. I was exicited because I had been trying to find a native speaker, as a language partner for a long time but failed. However, italki made my dream come true. I have chatted with my language partners several times. It was said that talking with native speakers is the best way to be proficient in foreign languages. I feel that I have become more confident and fluent, with the help of my language partners. Not only speaking skills but also a better understanding of the American culture are acquired via conversations with people, who have a totally different background.
Writing entries also benefits me a lot. It's those kind of those people who have corrected my entries. I have learned some words, phrases, structure of sentences, etc. from corrections. I also feel happy to correct Chinese entries, which are wrote by People who learn Chinese as a second language.
Thanks to italki, a fantastic website. Out of question, I will continue to polish my skills of speaking, and writing on this website.
