As far as my experieince goes, people really appreciate foreigners who try to learn their culture and language

correcting is always good too,and often i get corrected in japanese sometimes in english. as long as the friendship is a geniune and not just basic on using the other for language practice only. sometimes people just want to be friends just to practice the language some because your foreigner but every case isnt the same tho. there are who want to be friends basic off of interests but whatever case thats life.
