Are you ready for an adventure? How about immersing yourself in the German language, culture, and cuisine for 2 or 3 months? We have an incredible opportunity for you to truly experience life as a local in Germany. And the best part? You'll be staying with a carefully selected host family, getting a chance to truly become a part of the community.
Finding a home away from home in a foreign country can be a challenging task. But fear not, because we've got you covered! Our personalized placement program will ensure that you have a cozy and inviting private bedroom throughout your entire stay in Germany. So, no need to worry about the quality of your accommodation.
In exchange for up to 15 hours a week, you'll be helping your host family improve their conversational English skills. It's a win-win situation - you get to live like a local and they get to practice their English with a native speaker. The rest of your time is yours to explore your new surroundings, discover the hidden gems of the community, and meet friendly locals.
Your host family will provide you with a private bedroom and your meals, so you'll have a comfortable and welcoming space to call home during your stay. They will also be there to guide you and help you navigate the intricacies of daily life in Germany. Whether it's recommending the best local restaurants or showing you the must-visit tourist spots, they'll be your personal guides to all things German.
But the perks don't end there. As a tutor, you'll also have access to a wide range of teaching materials and resources. We want to make sure that you have everything you need to excel in your tutoring role. After all, your success is our success!
Living with a host family offers a unique opportunity to truly immerse yourself in the local culture. You'll have the chance to experience the traditions, customs, and way of life that make Germany so special. From celebrating local festivals to trying traditional dishes, every day will be a chance to learn and discover something new.
Now, let's talk about food. We know that delicious meals can make any experience even more enjoyable. That's why we've made sure that you'll have access to scrumptious meals every day, except for the times when you're not at the host home. So, you'll never have to worry about going hungry during your stay.
And guess what? Our support doesn't stop at providing you with a comfortable place to stay and delicious meals. Our local team in Germany will be available to assist you 24/7. Whether you have a question, need guidance, or just want someone to chat with, we'll be there for you every step of the way.
Before you embark on your journey, we'll provide you with all the pre-trip information and resources you need. We want to ensure that you have a smooth and hassle-free experience from start to finish. So, no need to stress about what to pack or how to navigate the German public transportation system – we've got you covered!
But it's not just about the language and cultural immersion - it's about the connections you'll make. Living with a host family allows you to form meaningful relationships with locals, forging friendships that will last long after your stay in Germany. These connections will enrich your experience and give you a deeper understanding of the German way of life.
So, if you're up for an adventure and want to experience Germany like a local, staying with a host family is the way to go. Immerse yourself in the language, culture, and cuisine while making lifelong memories and friendships. It's an opportunity not to be missed, but remember, it's not essential - just incredibly exciting!
