Descripción
Hi!! We are a young family of 5 people and a friendly dog. We live in Mina Clavero, a small touristic town located in Traslasierra Valley, 120 km from Cordoba City. We own a small complex of cabins and we host domestic tourists in summer time (December through March). In our place we have a spacious garden, swimming pool, a couple gazebos with hammocks, WI-FI connection, and a great view of the mountains.
Our place is located in a peaceful neighborhood, 14 blocks away from the main street and 3 blocks away from the river.

Ayuda
We are looking for workawayers to teach English in our English Language School.Certified teachers are welcome!!!
We have students from all ages in our classes. There are children and teenagers, who attend to classes after school, and we also have adults, who want to learn English just for fun or for other specific purposes. We also prepare students for international exams such as TOEFL, TOEIC, PET and FCE.
We have classes in only in the afternoon. Our main goal is to expose students to native speakers and to get them closer to other cultures and new ideas. Teachers will be asked to plan classes according to the needs of every class.

We also look for helpers at our cabins!!!! Volunteers will help us with general maintenance like painting, gardening and cleaning.

We stayed 3 weeks in Mina Clavero at Cristians' house. For us this experience was not what we were looking for.
Our goal was to work in exchange of accommodation and food, but especially to get integrated in an Argentinian family. When we emailed Cristian we made sure we wanted to be part of the family and improve our Spanish.
We travelled… read more over 20 hours to get to Mina Clavero and when we arrived Cristián wasn't around for about an hour and when he finally showed up in the heat he asked us where we were from (nationalities) and what our expectations in this Workaway were. He then confessed he had accepted all volunteers, not read our profiles, and therefore not everyone would be teaching English in his school but would also help him in the garden to take care of all of his properties. This was not a good start for us.
The communication was hard, he kept repeating that the exchange was 5hours of work a day for accommodation and lunch. There was hardly any trust and we felt the whole time as if he thought volunteers were taking advantage of him. This was purely work for free accommodation type of exchange. It was definitely not a cultural exchange as we wanted it to be. We were never part of the family, never shared anything with them.
The school was unorganised and was located close to 40min walk from the house with teaching hours throughout the day. The teaching part was messy and we were never clearly told what to teach which made us feel a bit uncomfortable as we weren't English teachers and the students were paying for classes. We were also told that some parents weren't happy with how the classes were going and we weren't surprised considering the constant rotation of volunteers every couple of weeks.
We also didn't like Cristian and Pauline talking to volunteers behind other volunteers back. The food for lunch was always really tasty but never enough, we had to share a very small portion between all the volunteers after 5hours working in the garden - depending if we were gardening or teaching English.
On the bright side, Mina Clavero is a stunning little village with beautiful sunsets and hikes around. This is the reason why we stayed 3 weeks.
Overall if you are just looking for free accommodation and free lunch this is perfect as both the accommodation and the lunch were very good. Our message to Cristian would be to start trusting volunteers who come to help and stop thinking they come only for free accommodation and to take advantage of him.

Alex and Jenny are the kind of people that we want here. They are responsible and very committed to their tasks.
