Description
We are a family with 4 kids (from 9 to 15 yo). We live in the south-west of France, close to the Pyrenees. You will have your own bedroom and bathroom. You could train the kids with English, organize activities for them, help with gardening. We speak French, English, Italian, Spanish, and I am learning German and Portuguese. We would like to improve these languages as well.
We've been practicing homeschooling for years but from September 2024 all of the boys will go to school.Types of help and learning opportunities
