Who are the Student Hosts? What do they do?

They will join in some conversation classes; have meals with you; play and teach some of the sports classes; arrange the social activities; help you every evening during the supervised homework sessions; help in the writing and production of our course Newspaper; and ‘hang out’ with you in the evenings. They are a very successful feature of our courses and they really help you to relax and enjoy your life during the summer. In addition to the British Student Hosts, we usually employ one or two Chinese Student Hosts. These are responsible
