Tuition Homestays
(Calahorra - San Sebastian - Barcelona)

This programme is a combination of the basic homestay programme with the added bonus of tuition by native teachers. Available in San Sebastian, Calahorra, Barcelona, Santiago and Valencia it has proved to be a very popular and successful programme and is based on a minimum of 24 students, 12 in each tuition group. By combining the fun of a cultural homestay and tuition, we find that students gain the maximum benefit from their stay in Europe. Lessons concentrate on oral skills, tuition may take place in either a local school or rooms hired specifically for the purpose. Arrival and departure days are fixed, but this programme takes place all year round.
