Description
My name is Jack, and I’m from London. I am currently on a six-month career break before returning to the UK to train as a maths teacher. I’m passionate about exploring new places and learning about cultures different from my own, which is why I’m taking this time to travel before beginning a new chapter in education. I’m hoping to spend time in Africa and Asia, and later live in France to improve my French.
I really enjoy working with children and would love to gain more experience before my teacher training begins. I’m enthusiastic about all forms of education—whether it’s maths, literature, or sport—and I enjoy sharing what I know while also learning from others. I’m reliable, open-minded, and happy to help wherever I can. -

More details about your skills
I’m a fluent English speaker and hold a TEFL qualification, so I’m confident teaching English to learners of all ages. I also speak basic French and am keen to keep improving. Academically, I can teach maths as well as support with general schoolwork or tutoring.
I love cooking and baking, and I’m always happy to help in the kitchen or prepare meals for groups. I’ve also played a wide range of sports throughout my life—including rugby, cricket, cycling, tennis, and football—so I enjoy coaching, joining activities with children, or helping with any sport-related tasks.
I’m practical, hands-on, and quick to learn. I enjoy making, fixing, and building things, whether it’s simple repairs, DIY tasks, or general maintenance. I’m enthusiastic, adaptable, and happy to turn my hand to whatever needs doing. -

What else ...
In my free time I love staying active—whether that’s going for a run, cycling, or picking up any sport that’s going. I enjoy reading (everything from novels to popular science), listening to podcasts, and learning about history and different cultures as I travel. I also like spending time outdoors, hiking, and exploring new places on foot.
I’m always excited to try new skills, learn from the people I meet, and get involved in local life wherever I stay. I enjoy good conversation, shared meals, and connecting with people from all backgrounds. -

From the moment I arrived, they made me feel incredibly welcome. Before I came, I asked if they happened to have a bike I could use, and they kindly found one for me, which meant I was able to explore the beautiful Breton countryside.
