Program Details
Hi! I’m Chenyu, currently living in Germany 🇩🇪 — but my family is in our hometown, Zhengzhou. This summer, we’re looking for a friendly English speaker to spend time with my younger sister, Tianyu.
👧 Your role:
Practice English through conversation, games, and daily activities
Offer occasional light companionship (she’s very independent!)
No formal teaching experience needed — just patience, kindness, and a love for cultural exchange
🏡 What we offer:
A private apartment (2 bedrooms) for your stay
Daily meals (optional)
Immersion in everyday Chinese family life and customs
A relaxed, respectful environment
If you're caring, open-minded, and enjoy connecting with others, we’d love to welcome you 💛
Activities & Shift
You’ll help Tianyu practice English in a fun and relaxed way — through daily conversations, games, simple activities, or going out together. She’s kind, curious, and already learning! This is less about formal lessons and more about natural language exposure.
Your help also includes a bit of companionship or light care when needed — she's almost a teenager, so it’s very easygoing.
