There are a lot of sentences with kérek in the first few skills. For example: Kérek egy sört.
Literally, kérek means I ask for. Kérek egy sört = I ask for a beer. But English speakers usually don't say that, so this sentence is translated as I want a beer/ I would like a beer. (So, kérek= I want translation is accepted in these types of sentences.)
Akarok= I want. It really means that, not just kinda means that, like with kérek:P
They are not interchangable. Úszni akarok = I want to swim. But "úszni kérek" simply doesn't make sense.

The basic meaning of them:
kér = ask, e.g.: She asked me to come over. = Megkért, jöjjek át.
kérek (sing. 1st p.) = yes, please, e.g.:Do you want coffee?
Yes, please.
akar = want
