  Descripción

  Hi!
  My name is Aurora and my husband is Alberto. We have two children, ages 14 and 12. We'd like this experience to be a cultural exchange for both of us. We've had a similar experience with au pairs, but the children are older now and don't need such extensive care or hours.
  
  Currently, we need help with English so the children can improve in a fun and engaging way. They speak very well, but they need to work on and reinforce their grammar. And if you're up for it, you can try teaching Alberto and me, although you'll need a lot of patience, haha. (Our level is basic.) And if you'd like, we can also teach you the language and our culture. During the school year, the children have some extracurricular activities (music, padel, study support, etc.), so the hours may vary, but generally, the children have free time in the afternoons. Saturday and Sunday will be free.
  
  The name of the town where we live is Alcover. It's a pleasant and welcoming place, and the locals are very friendly and helpful. Alcover has a small train station and bus stop that can take you to places like Reus, Tarragona, Barcelona, Lleida, etc. Usually in the summer, there are families who have au pairs and similar arrangements. If you'd like, you can contact them to visit the area and do some sightseeing. If you have any questions or would like to ask anything more specific, I'd be happy to answer. Best regards, Aurora :)

  Hola!!!
  Mi nombre es Aurora y mi marido Alberto, tenemos dos niños, de 14 y 12 años.
  
  Nos gustaría que esta experiencia sea un intercambio cultural en ambos sentidos, ya hemos vivido una experiencia similar con aupairs, pero los niños ahora son más mayores y no necesitan un cuidado o un horario tan extenso, actualmente lo que nosotros necesitamos es ayuda con el inglés, para que los niños vayan mejorando de manera dinámica y divertida , ellos hablan muy bien pero necesitan mejorar y reforzar la gramática.
  Y si te atreves puedes intentar enseñarnos a Alberto y a mi, aunque tendras que tener mucha paciencia para ello, jajajaja. (Nuestro nivel es básico)
  Y si tu quieres también te podremos enseñar nosotros el idioma y nuestra cultura.
  
  Durante el curso escolar los niños tienen algunas actividades escolares, ( música, padel, refuerzo de estudio...) asi que las horas pueden variar, pero en general los niños suelen tener tiempo libre por la tarde .
  Sábado y domingo serán libres
  
  
  El nombre del pueblo en el que vivimos es Alcover, es un lugar agradable y acogedor, la gente del lugar es muy amable y servicial, Alcover tiene una pequeña estación de tren y parada de autobús que te puede llevar a lugares como Reus, Tarragona, Barcelona, Lleida etc.....
  Normalmente en verano hay familias que tienen aupair y similar, si queréis podréis comunicaros para visitar las zonas y hacer turismo.
  
  Si tienes dudas o deseas hacer alguna pregunta más específica, estaré encantada de responder.
  
  Saludos, Aurora :)

  The kids speak English well, but Alberto and I are at a beginner level. We wish we could improve, we really want to be able to communicate better.
