To gain maximum exposure to the language, we encourage students to stay with one of our carefully selected English Homestay. Students normally arrive at their Homestay on Sunday and leave on Saturday. At LSI, we are proud of our ability to recruit the very best host families; this is helped by the fact that, in this beautiful and historic city of 200,000 people, there are very few other language schools. | |
