San Diego Area Hosts Needed To House International Students

SAN DIEGO COUNTY, CA – Education First Language Travel is searching for hosts in San Diego County to house 45 international students arriving July 26 and Aug. 1 to study in the company's English Immersion Program. This summer, the program is running a summer language camp with several sessions in the Miramar area.

The company is searching for host families in the areas of Escondido, San Marcos, Carlsbad, Carmel Valley, Rancho Bernardo, Rancho Peñasquitos, Poway, Scripps Ranch, Mira Mesa, Tierrasanta and Mission Valley to host students ages 10-18 from July 26 through Aug. 21 or from Aug. 2 through Aug. 21.

The students will spend 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday with Education First staff. School buses will pick up the students from two different locations in Escondido to transport them to and from school.

Host families provide three daily meals, a bed, and an open, caring environment where learning and cultural exchange can take place. Host families are also responsible for getting their students to their local bus stop in the morning, and picking them up from the bus stop in the evening.

The program provides host families with a tax-free stipend of $110 per week to offset food expenses. Some families may qualify to house up to four students, which would offer a stipend of $1,760 per week.
