Description

My name is Andrea and from April 2026 I have taken a year out from my finance job with a charity, now that our children have left home

For the year I am planning various adventures. So far I have spent a couple of months in Poland travelling and volunteering both as a conversational English teacher, doing one to one sessions and also living with a family helping around their large property with various jobs; gardening, curtain hanging, sorting etc

Since then I have completed a solo 4,500km cycle ride from London to Istanbul Now that I am back, I am looking for my next Workaway adventure: offering conversational English /
helping with practical DIY tasks.

I am a fluent English speaker who is engaging and curious - I have a TEFL qualification but I will be honest that I havent taught formally since I acquired it 30 years ago. I am a competent DIY and practical person and good at getting stuck in to fix problems...I am hard working and easy to get on with and I looking to connect with people in different countries to share and learn:)

I am looking for opportunities between October and Christmas 2026.

Andrea is an absolute gem! We would gladly have her back anytime. She was very committed and was highly praised by all our students. She's very punctual, easy going and she cheerfully participated in all activities. We couldn't ask for a better volunteer!

I have just finished an English immersive language course, run by Gosia and coordinated by Brad. It was a great experience and I would recommend this Workaway if you are interested in meeting Polish people and learning more about their culture and day to day lives.

The experience is a little different to other Workaways so be aware of what is … read more

Andrea came for a week. My wife Anna and I really enjoyed having her around . And even better, she really threw herself into the work, completing tasks which we've not got round to for ages. The first was to weed a flower bed. And now we've planted veg there, so that's really useful.
She helped Anna with cleaning guest rooms. And some of our … read more

I spent a week staying with Jim, Ania and their children at the historic they have been renovating for the past 18 years. The bulk of the restoration is completed but as with any such property and land there are always lots of jobs that need doing.

I completed a real mix of tasks..clearing a bed to plant tomatos, picking wild garlic, helping … read more
