How do you chose your host families?

An important part of your language trip is your accommodation. We are very strict when we select host families for our students. We set up distinct guidelines and conditions that must be fulfilled before we accept a family. We visit and interview all potential host families and then chose the best ones. We have worked with the majority of our families for plenty of years.

FAQ

What are the language lessons like?
It definitely will not feel like your regular school lessons at home – our teachers will take into account that you are in a country where the language is spoken. There will be a variation of group exercises and supervised activities, all together with your new friends from all over the world.
Can I stay with my friend?
We place friends and siblings together, as far as possible according to the conditions at the destination. However, it is very important that you let us know about this well in advance, preferably when you book your trip.

Please note that friends and siblings of different genders cannot stay together and on some campuses only single rooms are available. In such cases, we place friends and siblings as close to each other as possible.

How much will I learn?
Since you are surrounded by the language everywhere you go – in school and during your spare time, you will benefit from every minute. The things you learn in the class room is just one part of the education. You will also learn a lot when you practice the language after classes, when you go shopping or when buying ice-cream.
