    Description

    Are you looking for an opportunity to spend a couple of months in a fantastic location and improve your confidence in English?

    I am looking for someone to help me with the organisation of my English classes which I teach at a classroom from home for children and adults of all ages. Filing, photocopying, tidying , making flashcards, organizing toys and games and cooking classes. Social media, internet - maybe you can help with the French aspect of these.

    Also general daily house and garden tasks . Hanging out the washing, cutting the grass, tidying up … decluttering!

    Freddie is our dog who loves walks and cuddles and would love to meet you too!
    And Patience the kitten is a new member of the family too.

    What can you expect?

    A warm welcome, nice accommodation, fun, great food, flexibility. Help with your English, a nice base on your travel journey with support and encouragement on wherever you are heading ....

    What do I need?

    Positive energy, smiles, a willingness to be flexible - help with running a family - 2 boys 14 and 12 one week on, one week off , administration for English classes, gardening, dog sitting, cooking .... someone to share and enjoy each others company whilst also having space.

    Brittany is beautiful, there is lots to do - surfing, kayaking, walking, cycling....

    Look forward to hearing from you.
