JOHN, 23 ÅR

Hi, JP here from Cape Town! Short for John Phillip. Currently a university student studying business management fully online. I have approximately a year's babysitting experience, including looking after kids with special needs. Back in 2020 I completed a TEFL course and have helped several beginners improve their English conversational fluency. I'm independent-minded but at the same time family-orientated and would like for a host family to treat me as part of their family and a big brother for the children, rather than someone who simply looks after them. I consider myself more of an introverted, laidback person but able to stand my ground when needed. I have many interests and hobbies, some of which include traveling, photography, ice skating, watching sports and anything music-related. Admittedly, as tempting as a day indoor sounds, I'm always looking for an excuse to get outside, even if that means simply taking a walk. Hiking and just exploring in general is something I love to do. I'm fluent in both English and Afrikaans, which has many similarities to Dutch, but I'm eager to expand my knowledge of other languages. I don't hold a driver's license yet but I'm willing to obtain one in the country of my host family. If interested in knowing more about me and my passion for kids, feel free to reach out!
