Thread: I need English native friend too :)

Hello!
I'm Yuri from Russia. I'm 31 years old. I'm not the first looking for a penpal, but I hope few ones are still free and can pay me their attention . I have been learning English for about 1 year (school and 2 high schools are not considered ). I find my English not so good as I want. Maybe email intercoursing with native speaker (from Britain or USA) help me improve my skills?
I'm wating for your answers...
And correct my mistakes, please.

For some reason everyone likes to use 'intercoursing' in this way. You should change it to 'conversation' or something like that.

kiruv, why don't you just try talking to us on this forum under the list of topics. That will help improve your English.

Also Blackmagu is right, "Intercourse" is a word that we do not use much anymore. It usually referrs to "sex" these days. Try "correspond by email" instead. It sounds better.
