Advantages of Host Families

Living with a local English host family has many advantages that reinforce the valuable learning experience of an English language course:

  • Students gain experience of the "British Way of life" within an English family and English culture.
  • They have the opportunity to use their English in an authentic, family environment.
  • Students are encouraged to continue using their English after class has finished.
  • Students are continuously integrated into a completely English speaking environment.
  • Students are automatically treated as a member of the English family.
  • Our host parents are required to provide supervision for young learners on all occasions when the student is in their care.
  • Staying with a host family provides the opportunity to make lifelong international friendships.
