Description
Teach English to kids & adult + light help at home
⚠️Volunteer position We offer food and accommodation in exchange for a few hours of English language teaching per day ⚠️
Hello!
We are a friendly Italian family living in the lively heart of Catania, Sicily. We’re looking for a Workawayer with experience in teaching English to both children and adults who can help us improve our language skills in a fun, natural way through daily interaction and shared activities.
👨👩👦👦 About us
We are a family of four: myself, my husband (who works during the day and comes home in the late afternoon), and our two children:
Mattia (10 years old) – He already has a good level of English, is curious, and loves engaging activities.
Andrea (7 years old) – He has a good base for his age but is a bit more shy, so it takes the right approach to get him involved.
They both have school and sports commitments, so we’d love to integrate English learning through games, conversations, books, and fun activities at home. They love videogames,and Lego , but if the connection is good, they’re happy to join in on other kinds of play too.
And then there's me, who has a basic English background 😐😅but would definitely like to speak and understand it well .😎🇬🇧👩🏻🏫
So I would like to dedicate an hour in the morning to structure a study plan and language practice 💪🏻

🧑🏫 What we’re looking for
Someone with experience teaching English, especially to children (and ideally also to adults).
Someone creative and playful to engage the kids in the afternoons, depending on their schedule.
Around 1 hour per day in the morning (while the kids are at school) to help me follow a consistent and structured learning plan — I’m truly committed to learning English!
A little occasional help at home: watering plants, walking our small dogs, or giving a hand when needed.
Our main goal is to speak more and more English at home, in a natural and relaxed way.
We are open to hosting someone starting from for at least 2–3 weeks, with the option to stay longer if it’s a good match.
If you enjoy teaching, love children, and want to live a real Sicilian family experience, send us a message! We’d love to hear from you 😊
