Hello, My name Shirley and I'm from Cambridge, MA. I am a daughter of a Haitian mother and a Puerto Rican father. Unfortunately I don't speak my parents native tongues effortlessly and I want to work on correcting that. I've signed on to italki to improve my Spanish. I hope that I will be fully conversation by one year's time. I have one other motivating factor that has me wanting to be more fluent in Spanish but I guess I will reveal that with time.
