The experience

Come help me with my language exchange project, where you will speak to me in English and I will speak in Spanish. The idea of this project is to understand each other even when speaking different languages, and to have fun when communication fails. I need someone cheerful, who enjoys being with the family, and speaks English fluently, preferably that it is his native language. If not, there will be no problem.

Program Details

My name is Thayza, mother of 6-year-old Isabella, and Victor's husband. I am also an Author of the YCW language project, and interactive learning games for all ages. My venture is just starting, but I can already see the difference it is making in many people's lives. I create support materials for teachers, and family games. It all started with my daughter, and the desire to teach her important things. And it was with the techniques and materials I created that she learned to read and write simultaneously in Spanish and Portuguese. My main focus is Learning and I like to simplify the way of learning. Therefore, I need people to help me with my project, promoting and creating content for our social networks. You don't need to be an expert, just be willing to help spread the word.

Activities & Shift

In addition to helping me with my English or French, the most important task is that you can be the face and voice of simple advertising videos (you pronouncing a list of words from the magazine to the camera) that will be published on our social networks with the intention of attract more audience. The idea is that you help me daily with the creation of content for my social networks and that you feel happy and comfortable in our home and family.
