Most of our students stay with a local family - in 'Homestay' accommodation.
Homestay with a local family
The family provide a study bedroom, and treat students as members of the family. Living in a Homestay means that students have even more opportunity to practise speaking English, and experience British life and culture.
Homestay providers are carefully chosen to offer a warm welcome and a comfortable stay, and are regularly inspected to ensure they meet our high standards.
Each homestay provides:
- Breakdfast and dinner on weekdays
- All meals at weekends
- Light laundry
- Clean bed-linen and towels changed weekly
- No other student of same mother tongue (unless agreed)
- All families inspected by our Student Support Manager
- All families within 40 minute commute of ELC York and the city centre
