Easy access to the school

We always host our participants as close as possible to the schools: our host families are located 20 minutes walk on average from our language centres. All families are located in safe neighborhoods. Our main goal is that you fully enjoy your language immersion experience: we don't want you to worry about any accommodation issues. The sooner you register, the sooner we will start looking for the best homestay option available for you.

Warm families who like to communicate and exchange

All our host families like to talk, share, and exchange. They will introduce you to Russian traditions and way of life, while helping you to practice your Russian daily. Our families know that you are in Russia to improve your Russian, and therefore that it is important for you to communicate in Russian, whatever your level may be.

Hospitality and generosity of Russian people

There is no better way to experience the hospitality and generosity of Russian people than to live with a local family. All our host families have been selected for accommodation quality and commitment. They are always happy to share their culture and way of life with our participants.

Included with the homestay accommodation

  • An apartment key provided upon arrival
  • Desk, chair, desk lamp, dresser and space for storage
  • Bed linen and bath towels are changed once per week
  • Breakfast and evening dinner on week days. 3 meals per day on weekend
    (if you book host family accommodation with food)

A Russian family chosen according to your wishes

We have different types of host families that have all been carefully selected by us: families with child(ren), young couples, single mothers with child(ren), Russian grandmothers (бабушка), Russian students currently studying at university...

Our teaching method is based on full immersion in Russian language and culture.
We select only families motivated to exchange with foreigners, ready to spend time with you and share their daily lives.

Our families are not only a place where you spend the night, but above all a place where you communicate, meet Russian people and practice the language.

We know each family personally and we visit them regularly. We have an official contract with each family.
All are owners of their apartment and do not rent at the same time a room to another traveler.

When you register for the course, please mention your preferences so that we can provide you with the best option for your stay.

We want your homestay experience to be as best as possible.
