¡Hola! Soy estudiante universitaria de EEUU que necesita practicar el español. Nuestras conversaciones en español estarían grabadas (un video con audio o solamente el audio, no me importa) para obtener crédito en mi clase de conversación de español. Me intereso por la cultura de los hispanohablantes y puedo compartir mi cultura con ustedes. Hi! I'm a university student from the United States that needs to practice Spanish. Our conversations in Spanish would be recorded (a video with audio or just the audio, it doesn't matter), so I can get credit in my Spanish conversation class. I'm interested in Hispanic culture, and I can share my culture with you.

    *You are working at Starbucks, aren't you? Which location? (This one's fine.) *I have to leave at 4:30 because I'm gonna help my new house mate to carry her languages. (Only use "gonna" in an informal setting, like speaking between friends. Otherwise, if you're writing or speaking, use the formal "going to." Also, instead of "languages," I think you mean "luggage." Some "languages" are English, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean. "Luggage" refers to suitcases you use when travelling.) *My previous house mate, she left last week. (The organization is a little weird. Try: "My previous house mate left last week." It flows better!) She's going to get marry with Canadian. They have been with just 3 months! I can't believe it! (In English, we say someone gets "married to" someone else, so the first sentence would say, "She's going to get married to a Canadian." The next sentence would be, "They have just been together for 3 months!" The third sentence is fine.) And she already met his families and he already talked with her families on Skype! (English uses something called a singular noun when talking about "family." Even though there are multiple family members in one family, the word "family" in English is singular, not plural. The corrected version looks like this: "And she already met his family, and he already talked with her family on Skype!") Is it possible? (Yes, and your grammar here is fine too.) *I applied a job because one of my friend introduced me the job. ("I applied to a job because one of my friends introduced the job to me." or "...introduced me to the job.") But I'm not sure if I'll work there or not because most employees are Japanese. ("But I'm not sure if I'll work there because most of the employees are Japanese.") I don't want to speak Japanese too much. Of course the custermors are native speaker, but if I work there, I would speak Japanese with the employees. (Only the second one needs correcting: "Of course the customers are native speakers...")

    In the last twenty years, the Internet has become an integral part of our lives, providing an almost unlimited access to information of all sorts. However, the impact of the digital world on peoples' lives, the extent of harm it causes in particular, remains a point of controversy. While some believe the World Wide Web should be scrubbed clean of the ideas and subjects which “contradict morality” and the strict governmental control over social networks and websites​ is quite in order, others in turn advocate for the sharing of information for free (where copyrights are ignored) and total privacy at all costs.


    I'm not sure what the phrase "the strict governmental control over social networks and websites is quite in order" is supposed to mean. The last part ("is quite in order") is the phrase I'm having trouble understanding.

    Hello! This is Doyeon from Seoul, Korea.
    Well, I'll say something about me. :)
    I love films, music, drawing and fashion.
    I'm a student, but now I'm taking a year off from school, and so I'm planning to study jewelry design.
    Not very seriously, but just enough to know whether it's really a fit for me.

    Oh, actually I lived in England for less than a year. I was there until last year.
    At the beginning, I was such a shy girl, so I didn't talk much, and the English accent was quite unfamiliar. But about a month later, I fell in love with England. I loved everything in the city where I lived. Everything except the weather, haha.
    Now I miss every single person I met, the roads, the cafe I used to go, the beach, and well, even the weather. Ah, I wish to go back there soon! :)

    Although I went to England, my English skills are not that good.
    Well, writing is much easier than speaking.
    I think speaking is really the problem. As I told you, I am shy, and it's the only reason. It's hard to change myself. :)
    I don't want to lose any more of my English skills. I want to improve them.
    That's why I'm looking for people to do a language exchange with me. :)

    Cheers!

    "She is waiting for all morning" is not correct unless you add an object to the sentence here: "She is waiting for (noun or noun phrase) all morning." Even then, the sentence is awkward. Usually, a different verb tense would be used in the "waiting for" scenario. (Ex: "She /was waiting/ for Elizabeth all morning." or "She /has waited/ for someone to call her back all morning.") "She is waiting all morning" simply means the subject ("She") is presently in the middle of doing an action ("waiting"). The length of time she has been in the middle of doing that action is "all morning." Hope this helps!

    Pasear means "to stroll," whereas caminar means "to walk." In a literary setting, you may see pasear more, but they are mostly used interchangeably.
