I would love to go on a language exchange. I personally believe that being exposed to a language on a daily basis and trying to both speak and listen to a language is a much more effective way of learning a language than just reading books. I would love to teach Dutch or English and I would love to learn a different language such as Japanese or Korean for example in return.Skills and knowledge I'd like to share or learn

LanguagesMore details about your skills
I have 6 years of work experience in a restaurant. I believe this has provided me with a significant amount of people skills as well as discipline and a realisation of how to work hard. I have a drivers license and have a little bit of experience in gardening as my parents have a rather large yard. Additionally I have some teaching experience as I spent 1 year as a teaching assistant at my former high school. In this same year I also worked at a company which provided tutors to classes or for one on one tutoring. Courses I have experience in include English ( I have a CPE certificate and also finished a bachelor which was fully in English.), Economy, History, Dutch and Chemistry.

I love working out. I have been going to the gym 4 times a week for about 6 months. Before that I played Hockey and Tennis. I love animals as well. We have always had dogs and they are some of the best friends I have ever had.
