Why English and Homestay Canada?
We have a track record of matching homestay students with the right homes for them to create experiences and adventures that last in the memory for a lifetime.
Our goal is to provide the best possible homestay experience for students in their homes away from home. For many this is their first experience living apart from their families, so we want to provide safe and secure experiences for their visits.
