Program Details
We are looking for someone who speaks both English and Italian and would like to help us improve our English. Our level ranges from beginner to intermediate, so we would like to focus mainly on conversation, as well as grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation. You don’t need to be a professional teacher! We are simply looking for someone patient, friendly, and able to make lessons easy and enjoyable. We would like to have regular lessons, combining exercises with conversation and adapting them to our different levels. In exchange, you will stay at our Hostel San Mercurio, where you can enjoy a cultural exchange and experience life in a small Italian village. 🇮🇹🌿
Activities & Shift
We would like you to teach two separate groups: beginners and intermediate learners. We are looking for 2 hours of lessons for the beginner group and 2 hours for the intermediate group, three times a week. Lessons can include conversation, grammar, vocabulary and practical exercises, depending on each group’s needs. We would love to keep the lessons relaxed, engaging and enjoyable! 😊
Rules
The only rules we ask you to follow are simple: always keep the hostel clean and tidy, as it is a shared space and we want to provide a pleasant and welcoming environment for all our guests. We also expect respect for the common areas, other volunteers, and guests, helping us maintain a friendly, peaceful, and positive atmosphere.
