  • Benefits of Individual Home Tuition

    Living and learning in the home of the teacher has several distinct benefits:

    • Formal one to one teaching sessions, in a relaxed home environment encourages individual learning.
    • The teacher has more time to assess the student's needs and interests, vital for progress.
    • Extra hours of conversation outside the formal teaching sessions helps increase confidence.
    • Family knowledge of the local area helps our students assists students to explore local history and culture.

  • Selecting the Right Family

    We take the greatest care to try and select our families after personal interviews and document checking. Then we look for the best family for each student. The matching is offered to the student, before the final decision for the placement is taken.
    We keep in contact with the host family and the student to make sure both are happy with the placement. As a result we achieve a very high level of success with this course.


    The homestay experience is such a special relationship that friendships often grow and continue for years afterwards.


    For all our Young Learners we arrange for our host family or Local Organiser to arrange an airport transfer service. This is usually from London Heathrow, London Gatwick, Bristol, Exeter or Newquay airports but could also be from London St Pancras International station, or the port of Plymouth.
