Immersion Family Stays for Individual Students
An individual family stay provides a true immersion in the language and culture – the best way to make real progress in the language and to better understand the culture by living it.
Live with a host family in France, Spain, or Argentina for 1 week in the spring or 3 weeks in June/July. Our partners in these countries are personal friends and colleagues of Language & Friendship and have extensive experience arranging family-stay programs.
