    Description

    We're an open-minded high school located in Navàs, 80 km away from Barcelona, looking for a motivated English speaker to exchange language practice and cultural knowledge with our students. Our school methodology is based on PBL (project based learning) and we try to offer our teenagers a global view of the world and an internationalisation of the education. We are taking part in international projects like Erasmus+ and eTwinning, together with other countries: Austria, Greece and Poland. As a result of these experiences our students and their families are used to host foreigners and they are really welcoming. Navàs is a small village, with daily connection to Barcelona by coach.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    Our initial idea is that our host stays at student's or teacher's houses as a result he will have the same timetable as our students. It means from 8:00 to 14:45. For this reason, breaksfast will be supplied at home, a snack for the break at school and lunch and dinner at home. Host families will offer him o her a comfortable bed in a private or shared room, depending on the family in the village of Navàs

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    Our host will have the opportunity to attend private Spanish and/or Catalan lessons and enjoy the surrounding countryside such as the Pre-Pyrenees or Barcelona, because they are well connected by coach. Another free time activities would be practising sport.
