Burt

I'm here at Livemocha studying languages and meeting people. I will chat with anyone in any language. Especially I am looking for people to practice with in French, both by writing and talking. I do most of my learning now by chatting with people, and I help people that way also with their English. I am a very good writer, and I can help you too with your English. Send your lessons to me.
