Hello there! I am Brandon, I am 30 years old and I wish to learn Japanese, Korean and/or Mandarin. In exchange I have no issue teaching English. Two of my best friends instruct English, one is a teacher here in America and the other teaches English in Japan so I have access to methods that help instruct newer people to the language. I would really like to gain international friends as well as we pursue our language goals but this isn't a necessary thing if you are not comfortable!

I Love to learn languages (particularly Asian based languages) as they not only teach me culture but give me insight towards new perspectives. A bonus also is that get to meet amazing people! Mostly I have self taught myself languages for about a year now. I primarily focused on Spanish and Japanese but it showed me my love and desire to understand languages and culture while also showing me I would like to pursue becoming a polyglot as a long term goal.

I am already self taught in speaking Japanese to a beginner level, so I would love to improve my speaking as it is not even close to as good as I would like as well as finally jump into Katakana/Hiragana.

Korean I used to know a little bit from 8 years of Taekwondo but mostly have forgotten it, however I am very interested in the language.

Mandarin I know a couple words, but even those I probably speak them very poorly.

Thank you for your interest and I look forward to hearing from you!!
