I'm looking for english native speaker friend or comrade :)

Hi all.

I'm looking for native english speaking friend or comrade. :)

I want to improve my speaking english skills therefore I find english native speaker chess player from this site who want to play sometimes at lichess with me, communicate and discuss all about chess and not only about chess. It's better to communicate by voice via skype with microphone but if you use another soft (e.g. team speak) it's not a problem for me to communicate with you with help of it.

If you are a quite new in chess I can try to improve you chess skills for a little bit. But if you are candidate master or better and want to teach me for improving my chess skills I will be very glad to take a lessons from you! :)

I'm web Java software engineer therefore we may discuss some stuff about information technologies and programming but if you are new in programming (especially in Java language or web programming) I can show some basics for you if you will be interested.

I'm from Belarus. It is russian native speaking country. You may consider Belarus like Russia and me like russian.

Let's have some fun and experience. :)

Ok? I'll help you

yes, good :)

hi, i'm a c/python/docker software/ops engineer too. Willing to collaborate with you too.

Sorry to resurrect the topic, but are you guys still talking over voice chat?

I was interested in voice chat to improve my English skills just as st411ar said, and as I am also interested in the Russian language, that would be perfect! (I'm still not in a level where I can have a conversation in Russian, but I hope I will be in the near future).

Hi, yes. I told about voice chat via skype, etc.

I'm russian native speaker and want to improve my speaking english skills by playing chess, by programing, etc.

We have a problem (Houston! :) because we are not english native speakers.

Therefore it is very probably that we can't improve very much our speaking english together. May be some native english man will read our discussion and will answer to us.

One guy answered to me about half year ago, and we have several "meetings" in english. That guy was english native speaker. But then I had a lot of work and didn't play chess for a few months.

Well, if you want to improve your russian speaking and writing skills I may help you a little bit. :)

I will ask this guy in skype about meetings or you may ask him about resurrection of this idea: ru.lichess.org/@/xXJrHoLLoWeDXx

Thanks for the reply,

Yeah, I hope some native speaker(s) will appear! I think xXJrHoLLoWeDXx will get notified about this thread as he posted in here before, but if he don't reply I will send him a message as well.

I am (well, more precisely 'was'), a programmer (Java web developer), so I can talk about that as well, although I'm not very much into this anymore.

I didn't get a notification but when I was going through my timeline I seen my friend is active again :D. I'm momentarily not able to use Skype right now but I'm generally on Lichess on everyday.

Hi all, again. :)

Yes, I'm online in skype almost everyday - it's my account for work therefore i'm using it always during my worktime.

Brianch, i'm working java web developer too. :)
