American High School Student: Introduction Howdy! I decided to give in, and finally get around to writing one of these. My name is David Padgett, and I am a 17 year old living in America. At the moment I am finishing up my 11th year of High School, and preparing to start my Senior year. I live on the east coast of America, in what most would consider temperate climate zone, although it gets pretty hot here when you consider the humidity. I decided to join italki because I enjoy teaching and experiencing new cultures, customs, and ideals. If you need any help with English, I am fluent in the language and I would love to help out. :)
