I am a cautious, reserved, calm and happy guy. I am an A student and I’m very interested in Technology and Computers. I like to record, edit and work on audio and visual subjects. I like to help with community work, take photos, go camping and play table games in my free time.

Matheus, 16 yo male

A great dream of mine has always been to study in an American school, to improve my English, to know the American culture and to improve my volleyball level. I’m a very organized person and I always like to keep my things tidy. In the beginning I can be a bit shy but as time goes by I’ll be more extroverted. I like to practice physical activities and watch any sport.
