Hi! My name's Osvaldo and I'm from Puerto Rico. I've been teaching English for almost 5 years now. However, my native language is Spanish. I lived and worked in China for 4 years. I'm currently pursuing a Master's in linguistics. I've also been teaching mandarin at a local university. I would like to have language exchange.

Thank you for attending the trial lesson! I think your Chinese pronunciation is very natural and authentic. You’re able to express your ideas fluently and comfortably, which is really impressive. The only area that needs some improvement is vocabulary — expanding it will help you express yourself even better. Learning more native expressions and discussing current events more often would be especially helpful. Keep it up, and thanks again!😊
