Description
We are currently looking for a workaway to support our daughter. She's 16 and is doing her iCSEs online. She is rather introverted, quiet and shy and needs someone to help her establish a study routine and learn how to study in general.
We also welcome help with daily tasks such as cooking, organising the house and/or helping in our micro-school. You could even offer a workshop if there's a particular area you're good at.
In August 23 we started a private school for neurodivergent students (2e, gifted, autistic, dyslexic, ADHD, ...) but it's open to anyone interested in project-based and individual learning. The students are aged between 11 and 18. You could help with tutoring, cooking, running a workshop, cleaning the rooms and there are also opportunities to help with marketing, website development and SEO depending on your skills.
I am a high school teacher with a passion for empowering learners to discover their unique strengths and make a positive impact on a changing world. I have been working towards this goal for over 20 years and have won an award for one of my teaching formats (Teen-Preneurs). My husband Adrian is a self-employed sociologist and we have a 15-year-old daughter who is studying iGCSEs within our micro-school community, and a 13-year-old son.
In my spare time I practise aerial acrobatics once or twice a week in a rented gym in a public school. If you are interested, you are more than welcome to join us or offer a workshop in the gym or school building. Other sports that we and our children do in our free time: inline skating, climbing, skiing, cross-country skiing, trampolining and cycling (only the boy), swimming;

We very much enjoyed him staying with us and would be happy to host him again any time.
I would agree that it was particularly difficult at some points in our stay. The house and space is beautiful and all 4 of us were in a basement room.
We enjoyed doing lots of activities with the family and children, but the majority of these were inside activities… read more
