Hi, we have a group of two families going to Arc2000 19dec this year.
We're looking for a private English speaking guide to familiarise us with suitable runs/lifts etc for the first two days of holiday.
Also, to help with technique of two novice boarders , plus three novice skiers (all mid teenage boys who can turn and stop easily )amongst us.
We intend to stay together for a large part of the week as parents want to enjoy time with kids, despite one of dads being a black run skier.
Therefore,even though a group of 9 sounds too large for one guide, only 4-5 need help. The adults can lend a hand with kids also.
Can anyone recommend someone.?
We've emailed all the advertised 'schools/companies' we've found online. No luck yet. Thanks.

I think it is your terminology which is confusing people you have contacted.
A Guide in France by definition is IFMGA certified and is around 350 GBP a day but is highly unlikely to be interested in what you described above.
A private ski & snowboard instructor is what you need and any school would be able to provide you with this. Sounds like a job for one of the newly qualified instructors. Hope weather is good as can only imagine the faff involved with a group of that size.
