L'expérience

The volunteer would spend some time with my son Matias, practicing English while playing with him, help him to have his things done (schoolwork) and take him to school. Matias and I use English to communicate each other all day long, but he speaks Spanish with mom and at school, too. The volunteer can also join my classes at work so you’ll be able to interact with locals and learn about our educational system. You’ll love it. I guarantee!

Détails du programme

Hi, I am Helmer, I live with my wife, Lorena; and my year old son, Matias. We both are Colombian that teach English at a public institute in San Gil, Santander. We are host with experience in intercultural exchange due to our active in receiving foreigners through Couchsurfing. Our son is growing up and we’d like now host volunteers to stay at our place in order to increase their experience with a local family for more than a week, practicing with my son who speaks already English; in addition, you can improve your Spanish (Matias also speaks Spanish) learn about our customs, gastronomy, know our education system, and even more. You can join my classes and interact with more local people.
There is no need that the volunteers have plenty of experience in childcare and masters teaching English to kids, no! That is our job as parents.

Activités et horaires

You will spend the first two hours of the day (on Tuesdays and Fridays) with him helping Matias get ready to school and take him there at 8am. Matias has the following routine. Get up, have breakfast, organice his bedroom, brush his teeth, take a shower, put his uniform on and go to school. My wife and I prepare food for Matias and for the volunteer also, but that is something you also could help us with. It’s not your duty, however. Matías knows how to do all his routine by himself, but he needs sometimes support and guidance. After 8am, you’ll have the time to visit places nearby, or do your personal stuffs at home, etc.
In the afternoons he has classes from 2 to 4. So there will be only one day of the week where you would pick him.
Most part of the day you’ll have free to get to know San Gil surroundings.
