I was born in Daytona Beach, Florida, USA. I have spent a lot of time traveling my home country (mainly San Francisco, New York City, and Denver) and I have had the opportunity to meet many different and interesting people. I love learning new things, and I love teaching people things as well. I have never encountered a foreign culture that interests me as much as China. I look forward to meeting anybody from mainland China so that we may help each other. I cannot hold even a basic conversation in Mandarin. It would be best if you are understand conversational English and I can help with proper sentence structure, pronunciation, and expanding your vocabulary. I really need someone to criticize my tones.
