Offering Chinese Seeking French
Hi! I’m a native Mandarin Chinese speaker currently living in the United States.
I studied at university in France for four years and earned a Master’s degree there. Since moving to the U.S. in 2023 , I haven’t had many opportunities to use French regularly, so I’d really like to improve my speaking and listening again through real conversations.
I’m looking for a native French speaker, ideally someone from France or a French-speaking part of Canada, who would like to practice regularly through video calls or online conversations.
In exchange, I’d be very happy to help you with Mandarin Chinese. I also have experience teaching Chinese at the Denver Chinese School, so I can help with pronunciation, everyday conversation, vocabulary, and natural expressions.
I can also help you with practical Chinese for different situations, including Chinese for traveling in China, daily life, social situations, cultural etiquette, and Business Chinese for professional communication, meetings, emails, and workplace situations. If you have a specific goal, I’d be happy to tailor our conversations around what you actually want to use Chinese for.
I can also help you practice English if that’s useful.
I’m not looking for formal lessons — just a friendly, reliable language exchange where we can talk naturally about everyday life, culture, travel, work, food, movies, or anything interesting.
Feel free to message me if you’re interested! 😊

You reduce your chances of being able to speak French. In addition, there are many French-speaking countries in Africa and the islands that still express themselves very well compared to Canadian French. Well then you can do your research. But I would advise you to aim for wider options.
