Welcome English language students into your home Become a Host Family

Earn extra income, experience new cultures, and enjoy every minute If you have energy, enthusiasm and a spare room, here’s a great opportunity. Lingoo.com, the world’s biggest language exchange and homestay club, is looking for Host Families. We’re experiencing huge demand from our members – children, adults and families all over the world who would like to stay in a British home for a short break so they can improve their English. You don’t need any teaching skills (if you do hold a relevant EFL qualification, you can become a Lingoo Homestay Teacher). All you need to offer is accommodation, home-cooked meals, and lots of friendly support with your guest’s conversation skills. Our Host Families range from the traditional – with two adults and one or more children – to one-parent families, young couples without children, retired couples and people who live alone.

How does it work? Becoming a Lingoo Host Family is like running a home business. That’s because you’re in control. You decide who stays in your home, when they stay and for how long. You have contact with guests before you accept a booking so that you can get to know each other first. You also set your own prices and decide what activities you can offer, from day trips to hang gliding or simply walking the dog. What your guests will be looking for is an authentic experience of British family life and, most importantly, the opportunity to speak English in everyday situations. You will be helping them to build confidence and fluency in a supportive environment.

How do I get started? Start by creating a detailed personal profile on Lingoo.com where you can also read lots of advice from other Host Families. Once your profile is approved, your offer will go live on our site so students can start contacting you. After initial contact, you get to know each other and start discussing the details of the stay. When everything is agreed, you accept your first booking. Joining Lingoo is free. Lingoo only takes 13% or less of the income you earn from its members.

Enjoy every minute… Lingoo Host Families love what they do. It goes far beyond the extra income. Watching a child or adult guest grow in confidence to become a new member of the family with improved English skills can be highly rewarding, creating memories that last well beyond the duration of the stay. There’s a lot more information online. So if you want to turn that spare room into a new opportunity, visit: www.lingoo.com.
