Re: [Ask ] Find a pen pal here..

: : Tell them what you'd like to get from your contacts.

: : That'll better your English ability.
: What makes those native English speakers willing to do those?
: I mean correcting someone's grammar, phrases, ect....
: They are not our English teacher.
: We don't pay them.
So that's something we need to mention when we first
introduce ourselves, isn't it? They can reject or
they may do so much as a little help. Some people don't
mind - few though, but they're out there. Or, you might
as well pay for all this. A friend of mine do this for
a living and there are plenty of incoming requests
every week. So if one wants to practice English for
free, either find a partner for serious
language exchange, or, make do with those epals you got
and try to persuade them to pay a little more attention
to critical errors. Sending them a composition attached
along with every correspondence isn't a good idea, of
course. I tried this before and somehow it worked.
(But it didn't work every time. Some people simply
make friends. They'll say no immediately. Just keep
trying.)
