I am hoping to move to our villa in Perpignan area next year, and would like to utilise my current proffesions of Teaching all diciplines of swimming across the board, and running Full day care Nursery and Out of Hours Clubs.  Does anyone know how easy this is in France, or what the demand would be for teaching in these areas. Although my French is very basic, am trying to improve, would this impede my chances? I would like to teach in our locality, or to teach English in the local schools as well, any suggestions?

Our pool is just being completed, taken several weeks what with some rain storms and the 'french pace' of working.  We have a 8x4 rectangle as I wanted maximum swim area for our garden, its exceptional quality and is now looking good.  Awkward trying to supervise from across the water !!! Thank goodness for great French neighbours.  Its a Magiline pool, I believe in letting the experts do the job, all to our own and all that, and you can go on the website to view type and method of build etc.  We are in the South East near Perpignan by the sea with good climate.  Dont know much about how to keep it, treat it etc. but will soon find our of course.  Cost, well complete it was 31000 euro, but that was with all ground work, technics, filtration, robo, and finishing off etc.  Expensive, but again its the South so a bit more expensive. Hope that helps.
