    Description

    Come and speak English with me and live in a truly Italian family near Ragusa by the sea in Sicily.

    My name is Martina. I am 19 and live in Casuzze in Sicily. I live with my family in a nice house near the beach and have one dog called Axel. In late September I am moving to Rome to study Law at university.

    I am looking for a native English speaker who will speak to me in English. I can speak some English but am looking to improve my skills.

    Our house is 5 minutes walk from a beautiful sandy beach which is popular for swimming in Summer.

    I am wanting to improve my English by speaking to a native English speaker.

    I would like to spend 4-5 hours each day Monday-Friday speaking with you while we do things together. I can show you what it is like to live like an Italian. You will have Saturday and Sunday off to do as you please. I am happy to take you sightseeing on weekends if you like.
