FOREIGN LANGUAGE PEN PALS, International!

FOREIGN LANGUAGE PEN PALS, International!

I've been thinking about how to do this swap on Swap-Bot, and think I finally have an idea! I hope you will join me!

I love learning languages, and before I die, I hope to be proficiently trilingual. English is my language of birth, but a few years ago I began working towards my goal of being able to fluently speak, write, and read Hebrew. Now I am working on Italian.

This means that I would LOVE to have a pen pal or two who can fluently speak, write, and read Hebrew OR Italian and maybe wants a little help with polishing their English.

Because Swap-Bot automatically matches up partners, I never figured out how to make it work. But here's what I've come up with.

1. Sign up for the swap if you are interested in having a foreign language pen pal.
2. After signing up, leave a comment below about what language(s) you fluently speak/read/write AND what language(s) you are trying to learn or be better at speaking/reading/writing.
3. When partners have been matched up, do two things: a. read through the comments and find a person or two who is fluent in the language you are wanting to be better at. Go to that person's profile here on Swap-Bot and contact them privately, to exchange addresses, and write a letter of introduction and send it. **b. send a post card or letter to the person to whom you have been matched up, whether or not they write a language in which you are interested. This way, everyone gets at least a postcard out of this swap. You can send whatever greetings you would like in this postcard or letter.

Easy peesy!!

IN SUMMARY, YOU WILL BE SENDING TO YOUR ONE ASSIGNED PARTNER:

• a post card or letter, as simple or elaborate as you'd like

IN ADDITION, IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO, BASED ON THE COMMENTS YOU CAN CONTACT OTHER PARTICIPANTS PRIVATELY TO SEE IF THEY WOULD LIKE TO CORRESPOND WITH YOU AS YOU TRY TO BECOME BETTER AT A FOREIGN LANGUAGE THEY ARE FLUENT IN.

Because this swap only involves a postcard or letter, I will allow newbies, but I will be checking profiles. Of course this is international.
