a big joke

I was thinking it's going to be a good experience. As I'm not a gold member, I can't do nothing. Only sent "hi" to other not gold members. They are sending me the same "hi". :))))) it's only a big joke 🤣🤣🤣🤣

It used to be better

I used the site for the first time around 4 to 5 years ago, and I remember that even as a free member, it was somewhat active. Slowly but surely, it was possible to find people to start planning something together for language exchange. I’ve tried it again recently and unfortunately I must say it has really gotten worse, quite a lot. There are scammers, people who don’t reply to you unless you use a private picture (as if it were a dating app, which I’m not interested in). Moreover, without a gold status you basically receive zero inquiries, no matter how professional your message is. I know 3 different languages and still not a single person contacted me in 4 months. Just out of curiosity I tried creating a fake account using a female picture and got 10 requests in one day, even though the selected mothertongue was just English lol That speaks for itself. Really sad.

Met my wife through it

I used my language exchange for like a year while preparing for an stay abroad eleven years ago, so I can't provide an up to date review on how active it still is. But back than, it highly improved my English and my confidence in both it and myself, helped me to connect with lots of great and fun people from all over the world and on this day eleven years ago, I met the love of my life and my now wife through it. Despite not using it anymore, I'm so happy it still exists and I can't recommend enough.

(not that) Unproductive page

I am a golden member of mylanguageexchange. I paid in order to be able to send emails and answer the possible Hi!s I could receive. So far today, I have sent 45 requests to people interested in exchanging languages: they were interested in my native language and I am - still - interested in theirs. But for day 1, when I received two answers, I haven't received any more answers to my requests, which IMO is unusual. I keep sending requests just for the sake of it because nobody is answering me. But I have paid for a month and want a couple of interlocutors to help me with the target language. I complained to the webmaster and they suggested waiting for several more days and to space my requests. I'll wait. (Edited a few hours later) In all fairness, I must say I received one Hi! and was able to answer it, and made contact. The person who contacted me had a very poor command of my native language - he couldn't even say his name - and we dropped it. I hope this helps. (Edited on July the 14th) I have changed the appraisal to 3 stars because I now have several interlocutors. Eventually, it all depends on a lot of patience.

Would not recommend at all

When I first joined this website, I thought I was going to like it. That was until today, I found out they logged me out of my account, and when I tried to log back in, they said they had terminated my account for supposedly "violating" the rules. I didn't do anything wrong, I even read the rules and violated none of them. Not to mention that the website is also NOTORIOUS for scammers. If you want to learn a language, I highly do not recommend this website at all.

My Language Exchange is AMAZING!!!

I would give them 11 stars if I could! A MUST for all serious language learners! I wasn't very impressed at first, because of the outdated appearance. But after reading some of the profiles and their How-to's, I knew I would find serious language partners - FINALLY!. I tried other "modern" sites and apps. But they were full of scammers or people looking date me. Whenever someone texted me on an app, they would disappear after a short conversation. Over the years, I have found partners from MLE to practice writing and conversation. And not only has my French improved TREMENDOUSLY, but I have made many friends. Some of my language partners have become life-long, family friends. We fly across the ocean to meet up. We treasure and love our visits. I have even heard of others meeting their future spouse at MLE. It may not be completely free, but I find if I am patient, I will find a good partner. At times, I have paid for the gold membership too, and it was the best $6 I ever spent. I can't believe people complain about such a small fee, when the so called "free" sites are full of ads and send me spam constantly asking me to upgrade to their premium plan. My Language Exchange has made my dream of becoming bilingual come true. I highly recommend MLE to every serious language learner! Carmela
