Classes are taught by native teachers and they use the communicative method of teaching which combines all aspects and skills of language such as grammar, conversation, vocabulary, pronunciation, reading, listening and writing, in an interactive way that makes language learning interesting and meaningful . This is attained with the help of teaching materials that have been specially designed and developed for each age group.The school offers 3 levels: elementary, intermediate, advanced.
All families are chosen after a careful selection procedure and are visited regularly by the school to ensure that high living standards are maintained. Our host families allow students access to all living areas in the house and in many cases; students will be expected to share the bathroom. All bed linens and pillows will be provided, however we suggest you bring your own towels.
Your family does not provide a laundry service, however in most cases they will allow you to use the laundry facilities for a small additional charge.
The family provides 3 meals daily, with a packed lunch that is usually eaten with the other students and teachers at the school. On Wednesdays, everyone joins in a picnic lunch during the excursion. The families are normally located between 10-20 minutes travelling distance (normally by local public transit) from the school and town center.
