    Description

    We are a family of 4 with 2 energetic girls aged 7 and 9.
    We also have a very small dog.
    We are looking for someone to help our children with speaking Spanish, help them to build their confidence and encourage them.

    We live in Alcaidesa in Andalucia, Spain. It's a very large house, close to Gibraltar. We have a large communal swimming pool and live only 10 minutes walk to a lovely beach.

    We would provide you with your own double bedroom with a personal, private bathroom with shower.
    There are several pubs/beach bars/restaurants all within 10 minutes walk from the house. Several times every day and night there's a bus stop direct to and from the Gibraltar border (which is only 5 minutes walk away).
