In language immersion programmes, host families play a crucial role in the students’ experience. They not only provide accommodation but also create a welcoming and familial environment that is essential for the student’s adaptation and learning. At “Ireland Experience,” we understand that a good relationship with the host family can make a significant difference in the program’s effectiveness.
Living with an Irish family allows students to practice English in everyday and authentic situations. Conversations during meals, daily activities, and interactions with family members offer constant opportunities to improve language skills. This kind of practice is invaluable because it goes beyond what can be learned in a classroom, allowing for total immersion in the language.
At “Ireland Experience,” we strive to carefully select our host families. We conduct a thorough selection process that includes interviews and home visits to ensure they meet our high standards of quality. We want our students to feel safe and welcome, and that is why we only work with families who share our commitment to excellence.
Moreover, we maintain constant communication with both families and students throughout their stay. This allows us to quickly and effectively resolve any issues that may arise. Our goal is to create a worry-free and enriching experience for both students and host families.
Host families are an essential component of our immersion programs. Their dedication and hospitality help our students improve their English while enjoying a unique cultural experience. At Ireland Experience we offer our students a total immersion in the culture, history and customs of Ireland, and especially of Cork, a wonderful city. Contact us and join this great family.
