Practise a language by actually talking

A conversation at your level, with corrections tucked underneath so the talking never stops.

Let's practise Spanish by talking. You play the other person in this situation: checking into a hotel and asking to leave my bags before the room's ready

My level: I can handle simple everyday stuff
How hard to push me: normal speed, correct the real mistakes

Rules:
- Stay in Spanish. If I struggle, use simpler Spanish. Don't switch to English to rescue me.
- Stay in character. One turn at a time, then wait for me.
- Keep your sentences at my level. If you use a word I probably don't know, it's fine, but only one per turn.
- After each of your turns, put a line, then a short correction block in English: what I got wrong, the fixed version, and the one thing worth fixing first. If I said it fine, say so and move on.
- Don't correct style unless I asked you to push me. Only what's actually wrong.

If I go quiet or type something in English, ask me in Spanish what I was trying to say, and give me the words for it.

Start now with your first line, in character. No preamble.

What you get: A real conversation you have to keep up with, with corrections underneath each turn.

Corrections below the line

Corrections in the middle of a reply kill the conversation, and you spend the session reading grammar notes instead of talking. Putting them under a divider after each turn keeps the talking going while the fixes still arrive while you remember what you said.

"Don't switch to English to rescue me" is the other one worth keeping. Models are helpful, and being rescued is how you avoid ever building the thing you came here for.
