Send me a PM. I'll have some conversations with you. I'm not a native speaker, so I can't promise you I'll always be grammatically correct. But I had four years of H.S. and university Spanish, several months of intensive Spanish training from the government, and I've been all over Central America, Ecuador, and Colombia.

And writing is a great way to practice. I have an easier time when I'm writing an email, for example, because I get to pause and think of how to properly say something. Whereas, when I'm in a conversation, it's a bit more difficult for me to talk and think about what I'm about to say at the same time. Guys aren't always the best at multitasking.
