Homestay Courses - Ardmore Summer Homestay Centres

Our main objectives are that students improve their English in a safe and friendly environment, whilst enjoying a memorable visit to the UK..

Our Summer Courses provide a stimulating and enjoyable programme that allow students to mix with other students from all over the world. Making friends with students from other countries is an important part of the Ardmore Language Schools experience.   In addition, the safe and welcoming environment of a family homestay will encourage students to practise their English with new-found confidence!

Our excursion programmes have been carefully selected to suit different age groups as we believe that education does not finish when the lesson ends. Designed to educate, encourage and stimulate students’ interest, our excursions offer a wonderful combination of “fun and learning” to ensure a language experience which students will never forget!

The Summer Courses are held from the middle of June until the end of August and students can choose from either 2, 3 or 4 week programmes as well as a 4-week London + Seaside stay (2 weeks in Croydon and 2 weeks in Eastbourne) and our new Super London Discovery.

Homestay Accommodation

All of our hosts have been carefully selected for their ability to welcome students from other countries. Each host is vetted and constantly monitored by Ardmore Language Schools and our Family Liaison Co-ordinator to ensure that they provide a safe, secure and welcoming 'home from home' environment.

Excursions

Each week there is one full day and one half day excursion to a local place of interest.   Destinations may include cities such as London, Oxford, Windsor, and Brighton (according to location)

Sports & Activities

Sports may include football, baseball, swimming, tennis, unihoc (indoor / outdoor hockey), cricket, volleyball and other team games. Non-sporting activities may include arts and crafts, video film making and treasure hunts. These activities form part of the daytime programme. Evening activities may include disco, bowling and pizza party according to the programme chosen, however we also encourage the students to spend time with their host families.

Certificates

Certificates are awarded to each student who successfully completes the course – a valuable record of achievement reflecting the student’s progress.
