Hello Dina,
To begin with I'd like to make some corrections in your e-mail letter.
1. The word "English" is always written with capital letter. This rule is also used with other words denoting 1)any language, 2)any nationality, 3)any adjective relating to a nationality or a country name. For example: The English language,
the English (Englishmen), a French school etc.
2. to practise English with someone who knows it (knows with singular!).

With love from Russia!

Best regards,
Denis
