The reason why I chose a Live and Learn Homestay was to improve my written and oral English. With a homestay English course you have the opportunity to live with a family and gain knowledge about the English culture; you also have the benefit of speaking English from when you wake up until when you go to bed. My experience has been more than I could ever hope for. The family I stayed with have been amazing and so helpful with the language. The English lessons have been tailored to my needs. And the work has been planned around my interests; in my case it’s human rights. Part of a homestay is to involve yourself with the family and I have had the opportunity to participate in many different trips. Like shopping in Birmingham and Manchester and more cultural places like Stratford upon Avon where I visited the birthplace of Shakespeare. The family I stayed with was a perfect match for me. They were active and outgoing people who were easy to have a conversation with. They have made this a wonderful stay and now when I know it’s coming to an end, it’s almost like I don’t want to leave. I can truly say that my English has improved and I feel much more confident when express myself in English. One of the best decisions I have made! |
