Thank you for sniffing this out, Snoopy Dog. Italki needs all the police hounds it can get! This place is full of people - native and non-native - who overestimate their ability in English. This sentence contains multiple errors. 1. "I suggest you to ...." is incorrect. You can't suggest someone to do something. (The only time you can say suggest 'someone' is when the person is the actual suggestion e.g. "The coach was looking for a good player for the team and I suggested you"). The correct form here is "I suggest (that) you reach out...". In formal contexts, you include the 'that'; in informal ones, we usually omit it. The clause after the optional 'that' is a subjunctive. A genuine C2 candidate should know this. 2. Native English speaker? Oh, dear. It should obviously be either 'to a native speaker' or 'to native speakers'. C2 level English speakers should not be making such basic mistakes. To the native ear, this kind of mistake - omitting articles or using singular instead of plural - sounds like pidgin English. This is definitely not what you would expect from C2. 3. 'Personally' is in the wrong place in the sentence. 4. 'Currently' ought to go with a present continuous. The sentence should read: " I suggest you also reach out to native speakers who are currently learning your language." So yes, your instinct for fishiness was correct. This person may have studied English with C2 materials in a C2 class. They may have taken and even passed Proficiency. This doesn't really mean a lot. Their language is still full of mistakes. Keep up the good work, little sniffer dog.

Hi Snoop, I suggest (for) you to also reach out to native/advanced English speaker(s) personally who (are) currently learn(ing) your native language. I suggest (that) you also reach out to (a) native/advanced English speaker personally who (is) currently learn(ing) your native language. Nice to know everyone is always learning. Good catch, Stephen

No, definitely not by a native speaker.. but it means 'you should ask a native speaker'! :)
