Hello! We have just had a new au pair start to work for us. I am just wondering if anybody can recommend good places for English lessons? I have seen that there are adult educational classes in English run by Lewisham and available in Brockley. Does anyone have experience of these - bearing in mind that her English is already of a pretty high standard? Also, is there a group for au pairs in Dulwich/East Dulwich/Forest Hill, as I know that she would really like to meet some local friends. Many thanks!

Hi there


I'm afraid I can't answer your question directly but I am hoping that you might be able to help me!


I live in Forest Hill also and am currently looking to find an au pair. It's the first time we have done it and I'm using au pair world and childcare.co.uk. The problem is however, that I'm find it hard to find someone suitable. Do you happen to have any tips?


Sorry for hijacking your thread...


Thanks

Alison

Hi DCPTN,


We're int eh same position with our au pair who's English is already pretty good. Our last au pair went to this place (crappy name but good lessons) http://tropicsglobalcollege.co.uk/contact_us/ on a Friday afternoon. They do a 2 hour assessment so the level is pitched right.


Let me know if she want to meet a friend! Paula is 24 and from Spain - and very lovely.


Helena. I will pm you this message too

      You could try asking  ChatGPT? Give it the information you have posted here, and ask for suggestions in your preferred geographical areas (eg South and Central London, or whatever). It recently saved me hours when I was looking to see if there was a cheaper  energy tariff for my usage, and it  gave me other very useful relevant  information. I've also used it for several other things, and it has been eye openingly helpful. ETA: I know there are various issues around AI, so please if forum members are reading this and want to discuss them (I don't), don't do it on this thread!

      Parking in Herne Hill

      Yes it would be easier, and I give a lot to the hospice shops, but for various reasons there are certain things I prefer to give to Oxfam. However I might go through the books and see if some could be donated more locally. I think in any charity shop staffed by volunteers, the reception you get must depend on the member of staff. The Oxfam bookshop have always been very happy when I've taken shedloads of books there in the past. On the other hand, I've taken things to the hospice shop that were received very grumpily when they hadn't even looked in the bag or asked what they were. It felt like I was being a nuisance and causing them more work. I don't remember a previous thread on here  about the Oxfam shop and parking, but that's possibly because it wasn't relevant to me at the time.
