Homestay provides English language students with the opportunity to speak English outside the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home.

Accommodation Zones

Homestays are located in London mainly in Zones2,3 and of the transport system. Most hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is commercial and not residential(居住的). Zones3 and 4often offer larger accommodation in a less crowned area. It is very convenient to travel in London by Underground.
