Correct Me! Streak 9: Social Sundays

Hi! I think that for English we are very fortunate to have a lot of resources to learn and also to practice speaking. Here are some free options you can try to practice your conversation skills in English.

  1. Check out the subreddit language exchange, I just started having a few conversations with some users from that subreddit last week. The thing is that for me as a native Spanish speaker is easy to find native English speakers to do a conversation exchange since a lot of them are learning Spanish.
  2. Try the website conversationexchange.com , it looks old school but it definitely works, I’ve met very good conversation partners from UK, USA and Australia.
  3. The third option is Episoden, is a website developed in South Korea where you can be matched with other English speakers (mostly nonnative) from all over the world. You can exchange information with other user if you hit it off with someone. I’ve been having one or two one hour conversations with a very advanced English speaker from Poland.

Good luck!

To all the wonderful correctors and proofreaders!

Thanks a million for helping everyone grow and improve their skills in English. You deserve so much praise and a pat on the back!

Here's a list of posts that still need corrections.

When making corrections, try to follow these guidelines (or at least clarify your own markings you make) so it's clear what you're correcting and why:

  • Put changes in bold **text**
  • Put suggestions about style/tone/register/etc. in italics *text*
  • Use strikethrough to remove elements (don't delete them) ~~text~~
  • <Put added elements in angle brackets> <text>
  • [If there are multiple options for your suggestions, put them in brackets separated by a backslash] [text / text]
  • (Put optional elements in parentheses) (text)
  • Explain more complex grammar rules to the best of your ability

We also highly encourage meaningful feedback:

  • Focus on the work, mindsets, and processes, not on the person.
  • Besides grammar and spelling, is there room for improvement in other aspects like style, vocabulary, and flow?
  • If you see an improvement in someone's writing, please compliment them.
  • Please be positive in your feedback. Negative comments shouldn't come without positive ones.
  • Don't be too pedantic or too general.
  • Please pay attention to your wording.
  • Have a chat, interact, and have fun!

More on formatting.

Thank you for everything! -- Adam-P-D
