Description
Hello, we're a family of 5 with 3 gentle and funny kids (4, 7 and 9) who live close to Como, in a small town fully immersed in the nature. we like the idea to let our kids be in contact with different culture, in particular english mother tougue, to profit of english improving. I and my husband have a full time job and my kids during the day go to school. it's a bilingual school so they get used to be in contact with english speaking people. the idea is to move in the next year in an italian school so we'd like to continue to have english speaking around us. the oldest kids are sportive, they practice thriatlon and tennis so during the week they have also sport training. we try to live in a genuine and natural way so no smoking, junky food etc..... we eat more or less everything (maybe less meat even if we're not totally vegetarian). We’re looking for someone who while passing time with them could help to teach English .
