Hi! My name is Josh. I'm a 25 year old living in the beautiful state of Colorado. Ever since I was young, I have always had a passion for languages. I remember, as a 10 year old, I wrote my first language... complete with grammar and phonology. My mother picked up on my fascination early in life and, even though she didn't speak it herself, started teaching me Spanish through audio tapes at the age of 8. I went on to ace 3 years in high school, double majored in Spanish and Communications in college and through all those years I tutored South Korean foreign exchange students in English, and became fascinated with the Korean language. The first day of Christmas break during my junior year of high school, I spent 8 hours straight learning how to read, write, and pronounce Korean. For the next two weeks, I practiced almost nonstop. Upon returning to school, my classmates who I tutored in English were extremely surprised, and actually did not believe that I had learned how to read and write Korean over Christmas break. Fast forward to present day, I keep up on my Spanish, having many friends here in Colorado whose native language is Spanish. I also keep up on my Korean through the internet as much as possible and I have now taken on another language: Arabic. It is beautiful and the mysteries that it holds are seemingly endless. Thanks for reading and I look forward to getting to know some of you guys!
