Accommodations 
Staying with a Host Family is an ideal way to experience a new way of life and to improve all 
aspects of English language communication. Friendly, helpful families make your stay in Canada 
more enjoyable and enrich your cultural experience while helping you to practice and improve your 
English. 
Host families have been selected for their interests, friendliness, safe neighbourhoods, convenience 
to transportation, and comfortable homes. All homes offer you a private bedroom, three meals a 
day, and access to shared TV, telephone, and laundry. 
Student counsellors and a Homestay Coordinator are available to discuss any concerns in order to 
make sure your stay in Canada is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
