A GOOD HOST FAMILY IS
THE KEY TO A SUCCESSFUL COURSE
Your
local organizer is naturally very aware of this and takes
great care in retaining only families who conform to our
highly rigorous selection criteria.
HOW WE SELECT YOUR HOST FAMILY
Each
family is interviewed and their home fully inspected. They
will then only be chosen if we are totally convinced that
they would welcome you into their home as if you were a member
of their own family. The vast majority of our families have
received students for many years but even those who have
joined us more recently are very aware of what is required
of them.Your local organizer stays in contact with the families
throughout the year. This enables him to get to know them
very well and to ensure that they maintain the high standards
required. We also place great importance on the reports we
receive from students concerning their host families. Indeed
at the end of each course, students are asked to complete
a very comprehensive questionnaire on every aspect of the
course and the accommodation. The host families are marked
on the quality of food, welcome, comfort and the accommodation
in general.
A
GUARANTEE OF SATISFACTION
It
is BLC policy that only the families who continue to receive
the highest marks are retained for future students.The care
that we take in selecting our families and maintaining the
quality of the welcome they offer is in itself a guarantee
of satisfaction.
THE
BEST WAY TO QUICKLY IMPROVE YOUR ENGLISH
Living
with a good English family is certainly the ideal complement
to the programme of classes. By constant exposure to the
language as it is spoken by the inhabitants of the country
you will have innumerable occasions to put into practice
your newly acquired linguistic abilities. Not only will this
help you to develop a rich and varied vocabulary but you
will also find yourself learning the everyday idiomatic expressions
with a surprising ease.
