    Description

    Hello! My name is Begoña, I'm an English teacher and I have been teaching English for over 16 years. I love travelling, meeting people from different cultures and creating meaningful experiences for children.
    I run a small English cultural project where local children and teenagers come to practise real English with native speakers in a fun and relaxed environment.
    Our goal is simple: to give children the opportunity to listen to authentic English, learn about different cultures and enjoy natural conversations with people from around the world.

    MPORTANT: We only accept native English speakers. Unfortunately, if English is not your first language, we won't be able to consider your application.

    Availability:

    We are currently looking for a volunteer for September.
    We have one place available for one or two native English speakers on one of the following weeks:

    14th–18th September or 21st–25th September. (flexible on these dates)

    If you are available for either of these weeks and your profile matches what we are looking for, we'd love to hear from you.

    Who are we looking for?
    Please read carefully before contacting us.
    We are ONLY looking for native English speakers.
    If English is not your native language, please do not apply.
    We are looking for one or two volunteers who are:
    • Native English speakers.
    • Between 23 and 35 years old.
    • Friendly, positive and easy-going.
    • Active and adventurous.
    • Responsible and reliable.
    • People who genuinely enjoy spending time with children and teenagers.
    • Happy to share stories about their country, hobbies and life experiences.
    You do NOT need to be an English teacher.
    What we really want is someone who feels comfortable talking in English about a subject they know well.
    For example:
    • travelling
    • sports
    • music

    • cooking
    • technology

    The children love asking questions and learning from real people with real experiences.
    What will you do?
    You will spend around 16 hours per week with local children and teenagers.
    The activities are relaxed and fun:
    • speaking English naturally
    • sharing your culture
    • talking about topics you enjoy
    • playing games
    • outdoor activities
    • helping children gain confidence speaking English
    This is not a formal teaching position. We simply want children to experience authentic English with native speakers.
