Descrição
We are a family of four: my wife, our 12-year-old son, our 10-year-old daughter, and me, along with our two Maltese dogs, Xoco and Xispa, our cat Lili and turtoise Lola!
We are seeking a friendly and sociable volunteer to help entertain and teach English to our Spanish-speaking children, assist them with their summer homework, support with simple household tasks, and also teach some English to my wife. The commitment is 4 hours per day from Monday to Friday, totaling 20 hours per week. We are looking for someone who enjoys spending time with kids, which is able to generate conversations with them so they can engage in English conversations and advance their language skills naturally.
IMPORTANT: We are looking someone with Enlish teaching experience. The ideal candidate is a professional teacher during summer break. Also, we are not interested in teaching Spanish, sorry.
We live in Coma-ruga, a touristy beach town. Our house is just 50 meters from the beach, and we have a pool and a small garden. The town has a vibrant atmosphere with excellent restaurants and people enjoying their holidays by the sea. The weather is hot, so you must enjoy swimming! There is also a port where you can go paddle surfing or sailing if you're interested.
The location is well connected to Barcelona, just 1 hour by train. The "Sant Vicenç de Calders" station is a 15-minute walk from our house.
We are looking for someone to stay with us for 2-3 weeks during August.Tipos de ajuda e oportunidades de aprendizado

- Local Traditions: Experience local festivals, customs, and daily life in a Catalan town. Depending on the time of your visit, you might witness traditional celebrations, summer events, and local markets.
- Beach Lifestyle: Coma-ruga is a beautiful beach town. You’ll experience the Mediterranean lifestyle, enjoying beach activities, local seafood, and the relaxed atmosphere of a coastal town.
- Day Trips: We are well-connected to Barcelona, just an hour away by train. You can explore this vibrant city, its architecture, museums, and cultural sites. We can recommend the best places to visit and might even join you on some trips.
- Family Environment: As a part of our family, you’ll get to see the dynamics of a typical Catalan household. We value spending time together and would love for you to join us in our activities, whether it’s playing games, going for walks, or just relaxing by the pool.
