Description

Dear potential host family,

My name is Chris and I am currently looking for a Workaway placement - either with a family or school/orphange or charity.

Current Availability:
I have 2 full weeks in August this year (3rd Aug to 18th).

Spain or Italy are my two likely destinations for this summer, but also consider new destinations.

My plan is to travel and share further cultural and life experiences abroad - by assisting / helping families with childcare and/or English language (through conversation, play and day to day tasks). I am NOT looking for a holiday, moreover I seek to make long lasting social networks and friendships with others abroad, create memories and share a language and culture.

I am generally in very good health, a non-smoker, drink little alcohol and like to keep fit with plenty of sport.

I completed my first workaway experience with a lovely family in Allicante, Spain (Aug 2022) and loved the experience (Check out the reviews). We have since stayed in contact and visit each other every year!

I enjoy making people and children smile, laugh and have fun! If you are looking for an all-round, happy, funny, pro-active and a sporty English teacher / Childcare professional - then I'm the guy!

Experience:
I have an extensive range of childcare experience - mainly with 4-11 year olds. I have been working in childcare for over 20 years now - where I have worked in various roles including primary schools - running before & after school clubs and holiday clubs, as well as other work as a sports coach. I have also run a successful childcare (seasonal) business and have worked for many families as a babysitter, including running children's birthday parties and wedding creches.

My recent experiences have been in private households - working as an Au Pair / Manny for various families. These included working in London, Italy Spain and in Switzerland. Within these 'live-in' roles, my tasks included teaching English to children, (including some work in Italian and Spanish schools), typical childcare duties - help with homework, driving to activities, collection from school, playing and bedtime routines when needed. Help around the house is also part of my job - keeping things tidy, cleaning and being pro-active and as part of the family. These amazing experiences have given me the chance to meet and make new lifetime friendships and make positive differences, in addition to teaching myself new skills and adapting to different cultures and lifestyles.

I have completed an online TEFL 120-Hour (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) qualification, where I achieved a Distinction grade. As well as this, I have an Early Years and play work qualifications, in addition to a Football Coaching and many other short courses.

Additionally, I also completed a BSc Open (Honours) Degree in Childhood & Education studies via the Open University, achieving a First-Class Honours!

If you like my profile, please send me a message or add me to your favourites and I would be delighted to contact you. I have already some amazing references from host families which I would love to share and look forward to making many new friends and memories.

Chris ;-)
