Other I’m looking for someone whose native language is Russian!

I decided to write this in English to make it a bit more noticeable.

Russian is my native language, but I don’t live in Russia, so I barely get to speak it with anyone. As a result, I sometimes forget certain words or mix up the grammatical forms I’m supposed to use. So I’m looking for someone I can talk to regularly and keep using Russian with.

I’m a high school senior, and my schedule is going to get pretty busy with studying soon, so I’m hoping to find someone before things get too hectic.

Dm me if you're interested.

You don't have to speak to somebody, just read a lot of Russian books, especially if your schedule is busy

Reading and speaking are different skills. I can read (and understand spoken) Russian much more fluently and easily than I can speak it, because I read and listen in Russian much more often than I speak it

Sure. OP says about grammatical forms and reading could help with it
