Frequently Asked Questions

Can my family speak any English?

As you are at a Teach English homestay there will be a family member who knows a little English but generally English won’t be spoken at all in the household. This is your chance to improve your spoken Chinese.

Will I able to wash my clothes at the homestay?

Absolutely. There will be washing machine facilities at the homestay. Your homestay family may even do the laundry for you.

Can I get a greater idea of what living with a homestay is like?

Yes you can. We can put you in touch with previous students or you can watch this TV documentary which was aired on CCTV. This should give you a good idea of what it’s like living in a Chinese homestay.

Whom will I be teaching?

This is entirely dependant on the family but generally you will teach one of their children. On some occasions you may teach an adult family member.

I’m a little nervous on what food to expect? Can you re-assure me.

Absolutely. The food in China is as good as you’ll come across anywhere. The diverse flavours and dishes are a joy to behold and our homestay families are experts at providing you with a wide variety of tastes whether it be breakfast or dinner. We are sure you’ll enjoy it but if you have any specific requirements just let us know beforehand.

Is there air-con and heating for the hotter and colder parts of the year?

Yes all homestay’s are equipped with air-con and heating so you remain comfortable.

How do you select Homestay families?

Choosing the right Homestay family is absolutely vital and something we take very seriously. We get many applicants from families in Beijing who wish to host our students but we make sure the fit is a perfect one. The accommodation must be comfortable, the support must be 24/7 and the location must be relative to our school. Families must be warm, welcoming and willing to help the student whenever possible. All our homestay families tick these boxes. For Live and Teach Homestay families there must also be a family member willing to learn English and co-operate with you for lessons. Many apply to be a homestay family with LTL, only few make the cut.
