Teach English to host families in Madrid and elsewhere in Spain

Nino matched me with a family within two weeks and I truly enjoyed my first, one-month long homestay experience. The family was wonderful and allowed me to enjoy my time exploring Madrid while I was not spending time with the children. I would certainly do another homestay through this host again!

I had a fantastic month in Spain! The host family I stayed with were brilliant and looked after me very well! I felt very much at home :) The location was great too, and I was able to see lots of amazing places and meet lots of wonderful people! Nino was also very helpful in setting everything up and I am very grateful for staying with the family that he presented me to!! \o/

My host family was amazing, so kind and open, and easy to work with! I think I was especially lucky in the fact that the two oldest boys already speak fluent English, so as far as teaching English goes, I only had to focus on the two year old- and had help from the rest of the bilingual family with that too! It was a little hard being so far from the city (about an hour long commute) and often working rather late nights, but overall my hours were reasonable and on more than one occasion I was able to negotiate them. The kids have also really grown on me and I will be sad to be leave them!

Had a great experience with homestay, Nino was great. The family I stayed with were fab and treated me like one of their own. Would definitely recommend homestay and will hopefully use again in the future.

Immediately I felt at home with my family Nino set me up with. There was a language barrier at first but they were so open and willing to communicate that it became very easy. They took me on day trips and out to events and parties. The kids were awesome as well and we both learned a lot from eachother. I met so many amazing people that my host mom set me up with as well. Overall an incredible experience and would love to do it again.

If you get the chance, the home is definitely something you shouldn't turn down. I've had a great few months here in Spain. Not only have I been picking up the language, but I've made an incredible group of friends here who I hope to carry on seeing for years to come. Thank you Nino for offering me this experience, I've had a great time and can't wait to return to Spain :) Note: I didn't get any "pocket money" which although I wasn't really expecting, other au pairs/students got around €50 a week, so that's something to ask the host family about beforehand and sort out.

I am afraid there is no pocket money from this Homestay. You get paid with food and accommodation, and loads of free time! :-)
