  Description

  Hello there! We are a family of three: my two sons, 14 & 10 years old, and myself.
  
  We share our home with two very small, nice and beautiful dogs, they are Malteses.
  
  We are very easy going and open minded. I lived almost 9 years in San Diego, CA, so my English level is quite good. I love traveling with my kids, so I need to really improve my children’s English level.
  
  My kids are smart, playful and they both have a lot of energy. They both love meeting new people.
  
  We live in a beautiful townhouse with 4 bedrooms and 2 & a half bathrooms. We have a little front garden and a huge play room.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  I was a professor at SDSU & USD while I lived in the States. I taught Spanish and Spanish literature, so if you are looking forward to improve your Spanish level, I would love helping you with that!!!
  
  While you are with us, and if you want, we would like showing you our beautiful city and its surroundings. We live in the only Celtic area of Spain, and we would love showing you its uniqueness.

  Aide

  I need an English native speaker, someone to speak English with me in front of the kids, who also likes spending some time taking care of them alone, and who only speaks English with them at all times, no matter what.
  
  We have a cleaning lady who comes 4 days per week, so no cleaning services would be required from you.
  
  I just need you to focus on speaking, reading, singing, playing and living with my kids in your own language!
  
  3-4 hours per day would be needed, 5 days per week in the evening, after my children come from school. The schedule varies each trimester depending on the kids activities.
  
  My youngest plays tennis, he takes it very seriously and he began competing this summer, so if you can play tennis (a little more than casually), it would be highly appreciated.
  
  On weekends you'll do whatever you prefer, you can run errands with us or you can do your own thing! We would love for you to come with us, but it is important to maintain a balance, and therefore, sometimes you should make your own plans, so that we don´t feel we need to entertain you, and you don't get tired of us. Specially if we both agree to a long stay.
  
  You’ll have your own room and you’ll share the bathroom with the kids.
  
  I request a fully Covid vaccinated person, no exceptions.

  Hébergement

  You would be living with us in our home, in your own private room. You will need to share the bathroom with the kids.
  
  As I mentioned before, no cleaning services will be necessary from you. But we do need you to be neat. Your room should be tidy (so the cleaning lady can clean). You should help setting and cleaning up the table for supper, since we would love for you to share that time of the day with the boys!!! And you should help / guide the kids to tidy up!!!
  
  You are more than welcome to have supper with us during weekdays, and that food will be provided for you. But no special or different cooking (than ours), will be made for you.
  You will be more than welcome to any of our food . We do eat quite healthy food, (any food: meat, fish, vegetables, cereals, fruit, milk, etc). Any special food you should by it for yourself.
  
  Both the kids and I have lunch out everyday, but weekends. We do have breakfast and supper at home though, and we would like you to share those times of the day with us if it suits your schedule.

  Autres infos...

  You’ll have lots of free time. If you are a student, you’ll have a great schedule for any studies. If you need help setting the classes for you, just let me know!
  
  If you are a traveler, you’ll have a lot of time to explore. If you want to make a longer trip than a weekend, please don’t worry since I’m sure we’ll make it work no problem!
  
  We live in a nice residential area of the city of La Coruña. The city bus stops at our street every 20-30 minutes, and it takes you to the city center in 20 minutes.
  
  We don’t smoke, and only non smokers (in and out our home), will be welcome!!!
