On your Living Learning English homestay course you will be welcomed into your teacher's home where you will experience English life as part of a warm, friendly family. You will have 1:1 or 2:1 lessons with your personal teacher and an individually planned programme of activities and excursions. You will speak only English every day. Our courses are specially designed to meet your individual needs and to maximize your progress. Living in your teacher's home gives you a total, in-depth experience of English culture, customs and lifestyle - a unique and invaluable aid to learning. Please visit our website here or contact us here. 
 
Location: You can choose to study with a teacher in the city, the countryside or by the sea!  
 
Activities and Excursions: the social programme is built around your needs and wishes so that whatever your interests, you can fully enjoy your stay. You can choose from a wide range of excursions and activities including sports, cultural attractions, country houses and villages, cinema, theatre, pubs and restaurants depending on the location of the course.  
 
Lessons: at the beginning of the course your teacher will plan your lessons following a needs identification analysis. This ensures that the course meets your exact learning needs - no two courses are ever the same! The study plan is reviewed at the end of each week and new targets can be negotiated.

Usually the tuition is in the morning, leaving the afternoons and evenings free for activities, visits and excursions or private study.
