“But I don’t want to stay with a family!” We hear this all the time from our students. We fully understand that some people don’t want to stay with a British family whilst studying in London. We still believe that for learning English the immersion that a family gives you makes it a great option for practising English. But we also respect that some people just DON’T want to stay with a family. (Maybe we are biased being British!)
If you are choosing a course and accommodation package and don’t want to go in a family you should consider these school’s non-homestay options:
