With the "one teacher per student" program, the student enjoys a language immersion experience in a host family, with private lessons taught by a family member who is a certified teacher. Students can thus improve their English skills through 2 or 3 hours of daily private lessons held Monday through Friday. Staying with a teacher is an ideal way to make rapid progress in both written and spoken English.
