  1. if you can find an engish company where you wouldn't have any interaction with non english-speaking customer. o Englih families might need an au-pair. however you might want to take some kind of intensive course to begin with and when you speak a little more french you can apply for better jobs. i'm afraid the only jobs you might be able to get if you don't speak french at all would probably be something like kitchen porter, chambermaid, etc anything where you would not speak to customers. which is not gonna help you learn the language especially if you keep speaking english at home.

    try and get some info on the internet through expat. websites


  2. send your application to english companies which have offices in France... it depends on what you know how to do but a friend of mind work in fashion in Paris and never speak a word of French at work. You can find some work in media as well or even sale assistant in touristic places. The best is to look on internet like gumtree, etc... and French recuitment agencies specialised in languages.

  3. Try babt sitting for those who want their kids to learn English, to find small ads check out Fusac magazine, http://www.fusac.fr/en/

    Hope to say soon welcome to France
