Course Overview

On an InTuition Christmas homestay English course you will be part of a traditional English family Christmas and you will be involved in many of the Christmas preparations such as decorating the Christmas tree, wrapping Christmas presents and organizing the “Christmas dinner” of roast turkey and Christmas pudding.

Who is it for?

Our Christmas English course is for anyone who wants the cultural experience of one the most important celebrations in the calendar. It is also good for those living in the UK at Boarding school or University who can’t fly home and want a warm, welcoming family experience - as well as improve their English.

Key Benefits

Experience a traditional Christmas in the UK or Ireland
Enjoy Social activities with your homestay tutor

Course Content

On our Christmas English course we include afternoon accompanied excursions. As you will be living as part of the family you will have lots of opportunity to speak English all day, every day. However, on Christmas Day and Boxing Day there are no structured lessons, although you will be practising your spoken English with host family members and friends.

Doreen is a lovely teacher. I loved spending time with her in London. Her home is very pleasant and comfortable, and I felt great throughout the entire trip. The lessons were very interesting and well prepared. She spent each afternoon with me, visiting London and showing me the must-see spots around the city. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience. I highly recommend Doreen and Intuition Languages!

Response from the owner: Thank you very much for your review, Théo. We're delighted that you had such a great course with our teacher Doreen in London.

It was the best experience I've had in my life. I lived like a true Englishwoman for three weeks and I had a lot of fun with my host family. Ken and Mary are lovely people; they put me at ease right from the start and made me feel at home. Mary is really nice and good as a teacher. Her lessons were always different and interesting. Ken is really kind, helpful and a great cook. I also met the various family members, who were really friendly. I visited lots of places and I learned a lot of english. At the end, when we said goodbye, I was very sad to leave cos’ I couldn’t have had a better family. They remained in my heart. I hope to see them again soon.

Response from the owner: Hi Margherita, we're delighted to hear that you had such a great time on your InTuition Languages course.

Moira and her family were exceptional. Very hospitable and kind. Moira was an excellent and very initiative teacher. Moira is also a very good cook. The food was varied and very good. Her house is beautiful and very large. Close to York. Don't have any doubts about having a study experience with her.As regards the organisation, the opinion is extremely positive. My daughter's English has really improved and he has had some important personal growth experiences.

Response from the owner: We're delighted that your daughter had such a great language study immersion experience with our tutor, Moira. Thank you for the feedback!
