As you are aware, English is a global language and London a largely popular destination for all age groups.
To ensure that each international student improves his or her English, and has an insight of the British culture and hence returns with a memorable experience, it would be essential to place him or her in a good family environment.
MPA Coaching offers them the opportunity to be welcomed within an English Speaking Host Family.
To enable us to implement this project, we now request your assistance.
What is a Host Family?
A Host Family could be a man and woman of any age, with or without children or a single parent, aged 25 and over, willing to open their home to one or more International students.
What will be required from the Host Family?
The Host Family must have a room for a guest or student can share a room with a child of the same age and gender, but must have his or her own bed.
Can you offer one or more rooms in your home according to your availability?
The Host Family will not be required to provide food for the international student as they will be capable to cook and buy their own groceries.
However, you are more than welcomed to invite the student to discover your culture.
For how long?
These stays generally take place all through the year with the largest arrivals for the summer and holiday periods.
Even though the durations may vary, the international students will stay from 4 weeks to a year or more.

Each party is aware of its obligations during the hosting period.
Who will be your typical student?
The student aged 18 and over will come from European countries namely France, Italy, Germany to live and study in London.
What will you gain?
The Host Family will receive a weekly payment of £85 or more (subject to the standard of the room) for these youngsters.
Moreover, the experiences that will result will have a positive impact on your family and the international student, hence forming lifelong friendship.
Often the Host Family can travel to the student’s country to visit and meet their families.
Everyone involved will learn and understand a little more about the world we live in and the countries and cultures which seem so far apart or help provide that link back to your home country.
