Local organisers:Our teachers are only one facet of the Home LanguageInternational service to our students. Every area is supervisedby a resident Local Organiser whose job it is to monitor theprogress of each student and to make sure his experiencewith us is both happy and successful.

A phone call to our Local Organiser brings an immediateresponse and expert help and advice is given readily for eventhe smallest problem. Good as our host-teachers are, we canstill truthfully say we are equally proud of our team of LocalOrganisers all of whom play such a vital part in the worldwidesuccess of Home Language International.

HOME LANGUAGE INTERNATIONAL

A unique opportunityfor a full immersion experience,living with and being taught byyour own private teacher. HomeLanguage International Teachingis completely different from anyother language experience.You live and study in your teacher’shouse so there is no travelling toand from school every day.

You will not be led page by pagethrough a text-book but begiven an experience in living thelanguage you are studying. Youwill learn it as you learn yourown language - and at your ownspeed. Your teacher is concernedonly with your difficulties andproblems and not those of otherstudents because you will be theonly student (unless you preferour two student formula).

Home Language Internationallessons are suitable for all ages.There is no longer any need for the maturestudent to feel shy or nervous in a large classof differing ages and abilities. The unwillingstudent cannot hide at the back of the classor miss lessons because he lives and studiesin his teacher's home. Adolescents from asheltered background can easily besupervised by the teacher according to theirparents' wishes and the same applies to evenvery young children.

You can choose 15, 20 or 25 hours teachingper week and stay as many weeks as you like.

Mealtime conversation, visits, television andsocial contacts are all in the language youare studying and with people of that country.Living with your teacher means that you willbe guided and corrected not only during thelessons but at all times when the teacher andstudent are together. You cannot use yourown language because you have no contactwith other students from your country.

Completeisolation fromyour own

language is theonly sure way torapid progress.

You can choose the dates which suit you aswe operate all the year round. There is no "peak period"when you will be surrounded by other students becausethere is never more than one student living with thesame teacher (unless you prefer our two student formula).

Given sufficient notice, we can place you with a teacherwho shares your interests, whether fishing or football,the cinema or the theatre.

The most commoncriticism of languagecourses is that studentsspeak their own languagewith friends when not inclass. This weakness iscompletely eliminated withHome Lessons because wedo not allow contactbetween students of thesame nationality.

• EXECUTIVE STUDY FIVE STAR IMMERSION COURSESSpeak to your business associates within the European Community intheir own language and you will gain their immediate respect.

At last a language solution for senior executives and professionalpersons. Until now the senior executive has hesitated before travellingabroad to learn a language because the average family accepting“students” in their home does not live at the standard to whichan executive is accustomed.

The alternative is to stay in an expensive luxury hotel which can,however, be impersonal and offer little or no contact with localpeople. To make matters worse, the staff are very likely to havestrong foreign accents ! We are proud, therefore, to have found anoriginal solution to this dilemma. We have selected from among ourmany hundreds of host-teachers some very special families whosestandard of living is much superior to the average and who also haveexceptional qualifications.

20-year-old Caroline is currently studying

Economics & Law at Plymouth, but felt “the way

things are going with the EC and everything

else, a second language would be a tremendous

asset”. She decided to improve her French,

which was taught in an “uninspired” way

during her schooldays.“I looked at an English/American University in

France and tape courses and night school. All

the advice I got was that actually living the

language was important, and the Home

Language international scheme seemed the best

way to spend my money!”Caroline was placed with the Resche family in

the south of France. Her conclusion “It was

fabulous. I had structured tuition Monday to

Friday and was a real member of the family. I

wasn’t treated as an au-pair – the only things

expected of me were to learn and speak French.

Caroline’s French is now conversationally

fluent, and she intends to go back – to the same

family – to further improve her new language –

and make her a very desirable employee in the

Europe of the future!

Recognises language schools & studyabroad organisations which adhere totheir strict regulations of quality andsafety.

Caroline RiddingStudentPreviously in charge of the Frenchmarket in his company, M. d’Arros worked as anelectronic engineer and had never spokenEnglish. His company sent him on the 5-StarImmersion Course, which involved intensivestudy with his personal tutor, Dee Bunting, inStratford-upon-Avon.

His promotion to the position of InternationalSales Director meant increased foreign travel,particularly to the Far East and Malaysia, in anindustry where English technical jargon iscommonplace.

After only a relatively short stay, M. d’Arrosfound the system a good one.

“For me, this is a good solution. It is easy now tounderstand the advantages of combiningconversation and formal lessons in a very Englishatmosphere”.

McLoughlin

Professional

Language Teacher

MrsMcLoughlin had a good knowledge of French

and Spanish, but felt that her Itali

an needed some

improvement if her own language teaching company

in Alberbury, Shrewsbury, was to prosper. A

s a

professional, she knew that the most efficient way

was a total immersion course and after much

research she selected Home Language International.

She stayed with the Bardone family in Milan,

selected because they shared her interest inart.

They visited many galleries together during her

stay.

“The whole family made me feel very much at home

and I knowmy Italian benefited a good deal. Having

had experience of Home Language Int

ernational’s

prompt and efficient service, I would be happy to

recommend the firm to any of my students!”
