Practice American English (from intermediate to native level)
I am looking for buddies interested to make their English sound like natives, stressing both on accent and sentence structures. I speak intermediate to fluent level of English but not matching like a native speaker (choice of words). I want like minded people who want to practice and speak like a native would. With the help of each other we can adopt scenarios like we are in a drama reading scripts or part of a talk show expressing ourselves.
Few sources:
- American talk shows on Radio and televisions, e.g. scripts available on NPR radio Washington (
www.npr.org)
- American dramas like "desperate housewives". Download scripts from internet or read subtitles on DVDs.
Send me a message and I am willing to meet you anywhere in capital region. I am available after 18:00 weekdays or anytime on weekends. I am a young man and energetic to develop myself

I'm an English teacher and native speaker, if you want a practice buddy. I'm in the Helsinki city center on Monday and Tuesday afternoons to teach, so we can meet sometime after that. Generally, I charge for lessons, but if you want to build a barter system, I'm down with that. English-language books are #@*&ing expensive in this city, as is food, so I can barter for either of these.
However, this might belong in one of the other forums, so don't be alarmed if a moderator moves it.
