Language exchange with MyHOSTpitality.com
Compartir
It is carried out between two members of the MyHOSTpitality.com community who send a family member for a period of time to learn another language abroad by living with another family. On a reciprocal basis, that family will, in turn, host a member of this family.
Who is this option recommended for?
- Families with teenagers and/or young people who want to organize language exchanges abroad for their children.
- During school holidays.
- During the school year to study several weeks, some quarter, semester or academic year in another country.
- Adults who are interested in language learning and want to organize a language exchange abroad.
Generally, for short exchange periods, it is highly recommended that the linguistic exchange is not simultaneous so the period of coexistence between the members greater.
Exchange members of our community must have the following characteristics:
- Interest in language learning.
- Curiosity to know about other cultures.
- Open-minded attitude towards the coexistence with people from other countries.
- Spirit of welcoming and hospitality.
- Enthusiasm for teaching the native language.
Benefits of the organization and coordination of a language exchange stay with MyHOSTpitality.com
Minimum cost. Language agencies that run as intermediaries are eliminated and therefore the costs of these linguistic immersion experiences can be reduced. See the item “economic comparative”.
The members themselves decide with which other community members they want to make the language exchange according to criteria of age, location, gender, hobbies, etc.
Flexibility in dates. Members agree to the dates and duration of the language exchange.
Assured linguistic immersion. Interest in the language exchange is mutual, which ensures the practice of the language by both parties. Exchange families host and integrate their exchange guests into their daily life, treating them as another family member while expecting to receive the same in reciprocation during his/her visit.
Assured cultural immersion. Both families agree to contribute to an environment of welcoming and hospitality. Activities, meals, customs, etc. can be shared with the exchange family, getting to know firsthand the culture of the country you are visiting. In addition, families may agree on particular excursions or activities for each exchange.
