This is an incredible initiative! I just joined the group because of it!
I'm "offering": Danish (I am a Dane living in Denmark). I study linguistics, so if anyone is interested in just talking about languages in general, or want some insight in some specific linguistic area, I'd be happy to share my knowledge (or to brush up on something so that I'd be able to explain it to you - the best way to learn is to explain, in my opinion!). I also speak Russian (on a native level, though I can't write it!), English (on a near-native level), German (also on a near-native level) and a little bit of Spanish (on a really basic level).
I'm looking for: someone to teach me a Celtic language, preferably Scottish or Welsh - but if you know Irish or Breton (or Manx!) that would be great too! OR someone German; I know quite a lot of German, but I rarely use it, so it would be nice to keep it alive somehow.

Hello, I'm Kaitlyn! if you are still offering, I would love to learn Danish! I've been trying to learn online, but I can't find anything that would work with me. I only know English, so I couldn't really help you learn anything, but please reply if you are alright with teaching me!

I'm in German 101 right now, and would love to find someone who could help me with that. Although, I've always wanted to learn a bunch of languages, so I would enjoy any language you can through at me.

I've taken 4 years of Spanish (given that is high school Spanish), and am at no loss in English (as I am from the US); so if anyone needs those...

I can offer swedish. Though that would be kind of useless unless you're planning to move to Sweden or spend a WHOLE lot off time in Sweden. There may be time gaps, who knows. Skype may be needed since there's a lot of different ways of pronouncing a vocal in different words.

Sure. I'd love to teach you. But I'm 13 so i've still got school and may not answer right away. Especially with the time gap. It's 6 or 7 hours big. Here's my email: fridaflower_b@hotmail.com.

This is what I like to see.

Mailing, I guess. It's too hard to find a time where both of us are awake or not busy to use Skype calls. Do you know any of the absolute basics or are you a complete and utter beginner?

I speak English and Finnish fluently and French intermediately. Assistance in French would be awesome, but I would happily teach either of the other two to someone. Although, Finnish is an essentially pointless language unless you intend to move there! Not that doesn't make it a great language, haha x
