The student attends classes, extracurricular or after school activities, and participates in family events with a native student. This program is a good starting point before considering studying abroad while making some lasting friendships. It’s ideal for those who want a taste of what middle or high school life is like in the USA.

Summer Day Care
Pre schoolers and their parents can travel abroad together and bond over adventures over seas. This program is for parents who want to super charge their child’s English language learning by fully immersing them in the culture at a young age. Second language acquisition occurs fastest before adolescence, and when pre-school aged children are exposed to a language rich environment, they often achieve native like fluency in a very short amount of time.
