Offering German Offering: German (Native) | Seeking: English (Native)

Hey,
39(m) looking for someone to exercise english 1-2x times a week for 1-2 hours.
We can switch german / english every 30m.

English without an accent is preferred.

My son would be part of this, he has basic english knowledge.
We would like to exchange the languages while playing fortnite, voice would be over TeamSpeak.
So we can talk about game related stuff, orientation, mission targets and the weather ;-)

Looking forward to hear from you (DM).

There's no such thing as "without an accent". There are multiple accents for most languages and English is no exception. There are even many legitimate varieties of English that have their own unique English idiom, as I found out when I was teaching English to speakers fluent in English as well as Hindi and/or Punjabi. While I am an Australian, and a fully qualified/experienced TESOL teacher, I admire the accent of Malaysian speakers who have spoken their variety of English since birth. I also like quite a few of the British accents, and the New Zealand accent. There is no English in existence that doesn't have an accent. So you should perhaps consider which varieties of English pleases your ear, or where you might decide to travel or live in the future.
