Seek, search and look for
Hi everybody! Today I have a question for you. Sometimes I see these three words (seek, search, look for) used differently. I would express gratitude for your help if you answer to me what are the difference among these 3 words.
Another business, I am looking for someone who speaks native english and wants to exchange his/her language with my spanish :)
Thank you.

Depending on your sentence, they are interchangeable (just know when to add 'for' to 'look' and 'search'). When you're trying to find something, you can use any of the three (seek is just less commonly used).
Eg. I'm looking for a new job.
I'm seeking a new job.
I'm searching for a new job.
Search can be different from the two in the following sense: when you're looking for or seeking something in a particular place / area.
Eg. I searched my room for hours but I still can't find my keys.
Hope that helps!
