  • Description

    CURRENTLY AVAILABLE BETWEEN 25TH AUG- 15th SEPTEMBER

    My name is Milly and I am a 21 year old student studying French and Italian and Oxford University. I absolutely love my degree and learning about the culture and literature of France and Italy.
    My Bachelors course requires me to spend 1 year learning languages in the countries that speak them. This is the perfect opportunity for me to travel and meet new people!
    I have lived in the rural countryside of England my whole life so I am used to quiet and slow living, but am open to exploring city life as well. I am very outdoorsy and have been around animals and farm yards all my life. I am also quite sporty and I love activities like surfing, cycling, and watersports.
    I am generally quite extroverted and I love meeting new people from all over the world and learning about their experiences.
    Two of my passions are cooking and baking, particularly fresh bread and cakes. I am vegetarian (no meat or fish but I do eat eggs and milk) but I love to experiment in the kitchen and trying new foods from around the world. I am always open to helping with cooking!

    I look forward to meeting you

    Bonjour, je m'appelle Milly, je suis étudiante et j'étudie le français et l'italien à l'université d'Oxford. J'aime bien les langues et j'ai envie d'explorer la culture et la literature de la France. Il faut que je passe une année à l'étranger pour m'améliorer mon niveau de français donc c'est un opportunité parfait pour voyager et rencontrer de nouvelles personnes.
    j'habite dans la campagne depuis que je suis petite alors je suis habituée à la vie tranquille mais je suis également ouverte à l'exploration de la vie urbaine. J'adore être en plein air et je suis sportive aussi; j'aime le surf, le vélo, la voile, etc
    je suis extraverti et j'aime parler avec de nouvelles personnes du monde entier.
    Deux de mes passions sont la cuisine et la pâtisserie, en particulier le pain frais et les gâteaux. Je suis végétarienne (pas de viande ni de poisson mais je mange des œufs et du lait) mais j'aime expérimenter en cuisine et essayer de nouveaux aliments du monde entier. Je suis toujours prêt à aider à cuisiner !

    J'ai hâte de vous rencontrer

    More details about my language interests
    My degree that I am studying for is in French and Italian, so I am spending this year perfecting both of these languages. I have been learning French for about 14 years, so I am pretty close to 'fluency', there are just a few errors still remaining in my speech.

  • More details about your skills

    Since October I have been working as a language assistant in a school in southern Italy. The students I teach are between the ages of 13-18 (which some say is the hardest age group!). I aid them with grammar and pronunciation of English as well as some written exercises.
    Since I am a student at a very academically demanding university, I have great time management skills and I am very curious to learn new things.
    I am the middle child between two siblings, which has given me great people managing skills, since my siblings like to bicker a lot!
    I have always been very sporty, and as a teenager I competed in the UK national open water championships. I can also surf (moderately well) and sail (not well at all but I know the basics to get going!)
    I have been a passionate cook my whole life, since my mother taught me very young. Since I now live alone I have had a lot of practice cooking myself one or two delicious healthy meals every day.
    I particularly like to bake sweet treats for my family and friends (I make an amazing banana bread). Of course cooking also includes cleaning up the kitchen afterwards, which I've learned to enjoy with a good podcast.
