    Description

    We are a family of 3, based in a residential town 21 km from Madrid, called Tres Cantos, who would like to get our girl (aged 11) to learn and practice English.

    The town has train/buses to/from downtown Madrid and other areas. There are lots of parks within walking distance and it is very quiet and safe, mostly family atmosphere.

    We would like to find a friendly native English female speaker to spend some time with us this summer and help us with some English teaching and language practise with our girl.

    There are lots of chances to play sport around our place, to visit museums (close by suburbantrain) and all Madrid has to offer. Other cities worth visiting are also very near. We would love to share the experience of living with a friendly Spanish family.
