What's involved in hosting?

Bear in mind is that homestay accommodation is not the same as bed and breakfast. Students want to experience life in a real British home and interact as much as possible. At the same time, they should not expect to treat your home like a hotel and we ensure that they understand this.

We make sure our students have a full schedule of lessons and activities so that you experience as little disruption as possible in your daily life. Moreover, we provide a high level of support and guidance to our host-families in accordance to British Council guidelines.

What are you expected to provide?

Comfortable accommodation
Continental breakfast, packed lunch and evening meal
Arrival and departure transfers to the airport / harbour (weekends)
A warm welcome!
