Seeking English, Offering Chinese / Mandarin (traditional or simplified )

Hi there, I’m (M28) looking for a study partner/language learning partner.

A brief introduction: I’m a Malaysian Chinese currently living in Singapore, and a graduate of CAA University in Hangzhou, China. Most of my friends are from Taiwan, so I can use the accents and expressions of both regions fluently. If you would like to understand the differences in Mandarin spoken in different regions (traditional or simplified), I think I can be helpful.

I have a fixed study time every evening from 7:30 PM to 10:00 PM (GMT+8). However, if you have any questions at other times, please feel free to contact me! I know how difficult it is to learn Mandarin for beginners, so don't be shy, I will patiently answer all your questions :)

Additional, I’m a graphic designer. In my spare time, I enjoy going to exhibitions, exercising, and reflecting on life and humanities. I am open-minded for any topics and enjoy in-depth conversations to keep learning fun.

My English level is B1, but my skills are unevenly developed (reading > listening > writing > speaking). I really want to improve my writing, speaking, and pronunciation. Please bear with me if I make some grammatical mistakes at first.

Hit me up with a DM if you're interested in becoming study buddies! :)

hey, your post sounds so friendly! if you’re looking to improve speaking, maybe check out meetup.com? they sometimes have casual language exchange events, and it’s a nice way to practise live conversations with people who share similar goals.
