  • Description

    Hello!

    We are Jeanne and Jean, a French couple of teachers.
    I, Jeanne, am a primary school teacher, and my fiancé Jean is a middle school biology (science) teacher.

    This summer, we would love to spend about one month abroad, roughly between July 15th and August 15th, to discover a new country, experience its culture, and meet new people.
    As teachers, we will also be very happy to share our skills and help wherever we can, especially in educational o projects.

    We are highly motivated, open-minded, and enthusiastic about learning from others.
    We also have previous experience abroad: two years ago, we volunteered in a school in Kathmandu, Nepal, and it was a wonderful and enriching experience.

    More details about my language interests
    As French teachers, we are especially interested in teaching French and sharing our language and culture with others. We are also very motivated to continue improving our English skills. We already have a good level of English: Jeanne spent four months in Dublin as part of an Erasmus program, and our volunteering experience in Nepal also helped us use English in real-life situations. Additionally, we would love to revive and practice our Spanish. We both studied it in school (middle and high school), but since we use it less frequently, we would be thrilled to have the opportunity to continue learning Spanish while abroad. We try to practice a bit every day, for example with TV series, but being immersed in a Spanish-speaking environment would be amazing. We are enthusiastic, curious, and eager to both teach and learn languages while engaging with the local community.
