Language study abroad with Cultural Visits Learn a language while living with a native teacher and exploring the local culture
Imagine starting your day in a warm and welcoming home, fully immersed in the language you’re learning during your language study abroad. Your day begins with breakfast with your host family. Here, every conversation is an opportunity to put your skills into practice. Later, after your lessons are over, you set out with your native teacher to explore the area. This includes a walk through a historic town, a visit to a museum, or a trip to some of the most fascinating landmarks of the region.
Our language stay programs with cultural visits offer a fully immersive experience. Learning happens naturally through daily life and continuous interaction with your teacher and their family. During your language study abroad, you won’t just study the language—you will live it every single day.
🏡 A Total Immersion Experience
With this program, you are not just a visitor; you are a special guest in a native-speaking family. Your typical day will include a perfect balance of:
- Private, personalized lessons with your teacher in their home.
- Daily conversations during meals and family activities, ensuring spontaneous and natural learning.
- Guided cultural visits with your teacher or a family member. They will introduce you to the history and traditions of the region.
- Authentic interactions with locals allow you to practice the language effortlessly in real-life situations. This makes your language study abroad even more enriching.

Living with your teacher, or coming only for the lessons
Two ways, and the age of the person travelling is not what decides between them. Either you move in — your own room, your meals at the family table — or you take the lessons only, at the teacher’s home, with no room and no meals. Either way the lessons are one to one, and you book them in blocks of ten, fifteen, twenty, twenty-five or thirty hours. If you are staying in the house you arrive on a Sunday and leave on a Saturday; the timetable itself you and your host agree on once you are there, and it can run into a weekend if that suits you both better.
When the person travelling is your child, three things change. Under eighteen the lessons are never booked on their own: activities or cultural visits go with them, they are not included and they go on the quote. They are what fills the afternoons, and you choose which — a museum, or the weekly market with the family. Under sixteen the transfer is booked with everything else and it is on the quote, unless you are travelling out with them yourself; the host family or the driver I have booked meets them on arrival, and I send you the name before they leave. Under thirteen I add closer supervision to the quote, and that is what it buys: an adult with them in the house at any hour, not only after the lessons.
