A simpler way to live in Italy
As a tutor you spend around 15 hours a week helping your host family practise English — conversation over dinner, homework help, everyday chat. The rest of your time is your own to explore. You live as part of the household and pitch in with daily life, from meal prep to the odd errand. It's cultural exchange at its most genuine: you teach your language, and Italy teaches you everything else.
≈ 15 hours of English a week · the rest of your time is yoursWhat's included
Your host family covers the essentials, so living in Italy costs next to nothing.
Your own room & meals
A private bedroom, Wi-Fi, and meals with the family when you're home — no rent, no grocery bills.
Weekly pocket money
A weekly allowance (typically €50–150, depending on the family and your experience) for your free time.
Live the language
Optional Italian classes — plus the fastest immersion there is: learning at the dinner table, every day.
Travel & family life
Free time to explore on long weekends, and often trips and holidays with your host family.
