Description

Hi!

My name is Alex and I've recently returned from Japan as an English teacher at schools in the city of Kochi, on Shikoku! I've been back for a year now, and I'm excited at the chance to regain some of the French language I've sadly fallen out of using. I'm from the UK and I speak English, French and Japanese! I'm happy to help with any and all types of work, having already done a variety of workaway projects. I'm looking forward to trying my best to help you with your dream!

More details about your skills

I have basic gardening skills (mowing the lawn, pruning, weeding, planting etc) and have experience in chopping wood. I'm 28 years old and in good physical condition with a high level of fitness, so I'd be willing and able to do lots of manual labour. I
am a native English speaker and have a fairly high level of French and Japanese. Having completed a year abroad working in a primary in France, and 4 years working with children in Japan, I also have experience teaching English to children between 7-12 years old.
I am fairly confident talking to people, so I'd be happy working at a reception desk and dealing with customers too.

What else ...

I would love the opportunity to learn more about French culture, particularly local regional culture and food! I also want a chance to speak French and regain confidence in conversation.
