    Only a native English - French - Spanish speaker .

    Filippo would like to play the guitar, it would be great if you could help him!

    My partner Daniele and I run a holiday home in Southern Italy . Our life is divided between Rome and the Cilento coast, a wonderful Italian territory with beautiful beaches.
    We are independent person, my degree is in law . Filippo's grandmother is a retired philosophy and story teacher.
    In Rome We live in a central area of ​​the city ,we are close to the beautiful “Villa Torlonia” and 6 metro stops from the Colosseum.
    From June til September, we live in our turist complex in the south of Italy, Cilento coast!!
    So if you come during this time, you could have a perfect Italian beach summer between Palinuro and Maratea!!!!

    At home you will find me, my mother, sometimes my partner and my son !

    My son Filippo, a 10 year old boy , needs to improve his already very good English and French or start to learn Spanish !!!
    If you are English, I will also be interested in improving it.
    At home it will be important to strictly speak your mother tongue with Filippo, so that he can learn. with me you will be able to speak English, even if mine is a basic level.
    We prefer to host people used to providing help already in their home, who know how to keep their spaces clean and who can prepare a meal if necessary for family. Our ideal guest is cheerful, flexible and helpful...with many interests .
    We will ask to you to be on time and to remember your tasks. We hope you can feel our home your home, but please don't treat us like a hotel .

    I am looking for a person who makes Filippo's time special, who wants to do fun and play .......
    Do you have experience with children of a variety of ages? Are you happy to be with children? Are you able to invent games, sing, swim, paint and draw using your imagination?
    If so read on.....

    We have had so many guests from Canada, USA ,South Africa ,UK and our family is open to the world. We also hosted a retired English teacher from Brighton .

    I am looking for someone to stay for a few weeks or more and help in my family. I would also appreciate washing dishes after meals or cooking during your stay ....but the first thing is play with my son!
    When working with Filippo don't be distracted by the phone (if you can't leave your phone away from you for a few hours, you'll have to look for another host! ) or other activities. We ask you not only to be with the child, but to ACTIVELY INTERACT WITH HIM.
    I don’t need to "just watch" or long periods of silence!
    You are here to help him improve in foreign languages ​​and make him have fun. you need to be able to keep constantly these two goals in mind .

    With Filippo :
    -take him to school and pick him up (only when I can't). School is a one minute walk from home!!
    - 2/3 pages a day of a foreign language grammar book (English- French-Spanish)
    -correct his language mistakes
    -play and be happy together
    -check his daily cleaning routine: wash hands , to brush teeth thoroughly,
    -Reordering of his games

    At home:
    -washing the dishes after meals
    -sometimes welcome help in cooking (only if you like to do it)
    -keeping your room tidy and clean
    -use a vacuum cleaner and wash the floor 3 times a week
