Kirk here with a little inquiry about language exchange possibilities. An English student of mine mentioned that he found it hard to get motivated to study English when he didn’t have anyone to talk to. A few other students use HelloTalk (mentioned in this article) and that might be a solution. The article also indicates that Facebook can be used for language exchange.

Whether the actual exchange occurs on Facebook or on another platform, I wonder if this page might not facilitate such mutually beneficial exchanges. Personally, I’m married to a native speaker of Japanese so my needs are met, but I’d love to see the page function in this way.

Please share your thoughts and/or experiences with online language exchanges in comments.
