I now have a tutor for Spanish. And I’m an English tutor a la vez. I met Rosario at the Comité Hispano. Es boliviana and is interested in mejorar her English. I, por su puesto, am interested in improving my Spanish. So, we trade lecciones. And in the process, we’ve become amigos. So far, Rosario y yo have been studying juntos for casi tres semanas. I have also met her housemates – todos son bolivianos – and they too are interested in improving their inglés (and they are now mis amigos también). So it’s a win-win situation, although I wish I knew more norteamericanos interested in learning Spanish so we could add some more English to the mix (to benifit los hispanoparlantes). This seems like a great oportunity for university estudiantes. If I was back home in Memphis, I could easily find willing participantes since I belonged to a language club there filled with norteamericanos. But I’m new to Virginia and I hardly know anyone here. If you’re interested (and you’re not a psycho), feel free to contact me. We usually meet in either Arlington or Annandale (Virginia).
