  Description

  Hello there, I'm Eduardo, I'm 28 years old, me and my family run a small language school in a small country city in the southern of Brazil. We want to connect people around the world to share their experience, their culture, to our beloved students! We have students from little kids starting with 5 years old until grown up adults who work all day and at night come to learn English.
  
  My father is retired and is 63 years old, my mom is a housekeeper and is 56 years old, both of them are really friendly and happy to meet people around the world, and they will treat you like a new son :)))
  
  We already had a lot of interns from other projects, some of them from Poland, Germany, Russia, Colombia, Mexico, Ireland, etc.... and the experience was awesome!!!! |Now we are trying to do it with workaway :D
  It's possible to see the students eyes shining when they hear about foreign life experiences, people in a small city are mostly unaware of all possibilities around the world, so it's a great opportunity to show to our students the beautiful side of other people's culture.
  
  We currently have 6 teachers all of them from Brazil, we also have a French, a Spanish and a German teacher (but English it's the main course). Our goal here is to make our students have a real and nice conversation and most important, learn about other cultures! We can guarantee that both sides will have the opportunity to learn a lot :)
