English Family Sought For A French Exchange - Can You Help?

Hello everyone!

One of my clients is looking to place their 13 yr old son in the UK to improve his English for a month. Like his brothers and sisters, he is home-schooled.

The idea would be to spend a month in an English family and then their child spend a month with him in France.

Please contact me if you can help.

Thank you.
