If you add me as a friend, don't be shy! If I don't message you back right away, it's probably because I'm busy with school. Don't be afraid to talk to me :) I'm very open-minded. (I really like all the languages of the world, and it doesn't matter what you speak or where you are from, as long as you have real intentions of learning English or making a true friend, I'd be happy to talk to you and help you out.) -- By the way, this profile is extra long. You probably don't wanna read all of it. A quick summary: My name is Rachel, I'm 20, and I really like languages. If you like languages I'll probably like you. Hey. I'm Rachel. I'm a 18 year old college student who really just enjoys learning languages! I'd be eager to help you learn English and I want to be a wildlife biologist. I really like a lot of things, but my favorite things in life include music, my dog, my friends, watching TV, reading, writing, and playing the piano. I took four years of Japanese in high school, but I haven't practiced it in so long that I think I might need to relearn it by practicing with a friend! I'm currently taking Russian in college and I think I have a pretty basic grasp of the language, but I am awful at speaking and coming up with grammar on the spot, so I'd absolutely LOVE to practice that this summer. I'm trying to tackle a couple languages at once (well, more than a couple), but the ones that I'm focusing on (other than Japanese) are Korean, Chinese, and Spanish. I'd love to travel but I've never been outside of the U.S. :( I'd really like to help people learn some English. I'm not a professional teacher by any means, but I'd really like to learn how to teach another language, so if you have a conversational background in English, don't hesitate to contact me! -- I use skype mainly, along with gmail. If you'd like to contact me by either of these or use yahoo/msn (which I use less frequently but still try to go on), please message me. ^^
