Hello!
My name is Brendan. I just turned 22 years old, I am very creative, compassionate, and easy to get along with. I was supposed to be an English teacher in Paris, but due to visa complications I was unable to do so. I am currently a substitute English teacher in America, but I am looking to expand and travel to European countries. I am very professional, but I have a good sense of humor.Interests

LanguagesMore details about your skills
I have a Bachelor's Degree in English from a college in Florida, where I studied while also working at Disney World. I wrote my thesis on Peter Pan. I have also worked as a radio station host, a journalist, a teacher, and I frequently volunteered at a vegan animal farm where I used to lead groups of children and young adults.
I studied abroad in London, UK which is when I got my first taste of life outside of the United States. Since then, I have had a strong desire to return to Europe.
In my free time, I like to write, travel, learn new languages, ride bicycles, and play music. My mom is a music teacher and I can play 4 different instruments.Age

What else ...
I love children, and animals. I am very passionate about creativity and encouraging children to find creative outlets. I also like to play sports and musical instruments. I am a very good storyteller and I love to help children become passionate about literature and writing (in any language, although I am better at English).
