Our mission: to inspire cultural understanding and connection through immersive and personalised language learning.

InTuition Languages is a pioneer in the development of homestay language immersion: complete immersion programmes where students live and study with their own personal tutor.

We are also experts in 1:1 online language training and all other forms of personalised language tutoring.

Since 1992, we have been driven to provide language training excellence for every one of the more than 35,000 students who have trusted us to help them achieve their goals, whatever they may be.

Why homestay immersion?

Complete immersion in a homestay environment is the most efficient way to learn a language. Read the science behind our success here.

How we recruit our homestay language teachers

Our homestay teachers go through a comprehensive 7-step recruitment process, ensuring that the highest standards of quality are maintained.

Step 1: Teachers apply to register with us. Most have a background in language teaching, and want to swap the chaos of the classroom for the control and flexibility that personalised tuition offers.
Step 2: Our academic team checks that the teacher is qualified to teach the language which they have applied to teach, according to British Council and IALC requirements.
Step 3: Our Director of Studies interviews the applicant teacher, to assess their teaching skills.
Step 4: We check each applicant teacher's professional references.
Step 5: We visit the applicant teacher in their home, to check that their accommodation is of a high standard and that they provide a warm welcome to their guests.
Step 6: For Young Learner teachers, we arrange police checks and other additional vetting as required.
Step 7: We construct our new teacher's profile. They are now ready to host!

    2 Wochen Frankreich. Leben bei der Lehrerin. 6 Stunden Unterricht am Tag. Gutes Essen, schöne Ausflüge.
    Es hat mir richtig viel gebracht.

    Das war eine Reise, die ich nie mehr vergessen werde
    Response from the owner:Thank you, Dirk. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your homestay French immersion course in France.
    InTuition hat mir erneut einen Homestay vermittelt, der in jeder Weise hervorragend war. Ich kann InTuition nur empfehlen.
    Response from the owner:Thank you Heike, we are delighted that you enjoyed another course with us.
    I had an amazing language stay with my host teacher in southern England. From the very beginning, I was warmly welcomed and felt like part of the family. My teacher went above and beyond what I had expected — not only did I improve my English, but I also experienced so much more. We went on beautiful hikes, visited the cinema, enjoyed afternoon tea with her friends, and went on several lovely excursions together. I was accommodated in a private annex that had everything I needed, which made the stay even more comfortable. It was the perfect mix of learning and cultural immersion. I’m truly grateful for this unforgettable experience!
    Response from the owner:Hello Lut, thank you very much for your feedback. We're delighted that you had such a fantastic time with our teacher, Eileen. Thanks again for choosing InTuition!

    Response from the owner:Thank you Ivo, we are delighted you enjoyed your InTuition homestay immersion course!
    Our 1st grade middle school daughter spent two weeks with a host family on an intensive, full immersion language program.
    The host family was wonderful, the location was great, the impact on her English ability and, more importantly, her confidence in using the language in real situations was boosted tremendously.
    Highly recommended.
    Response from the owner:Thank you very much. We are delighted that your daughter enjoyed her homestay immersion course with our teacher, Charlotte, in Bournemouth.
    Very good training, very good teacher
    Response from the owner:Thank you Pascal, we are delighted that you enjoyed your InTuition course.
    We had a nice stay in Southampton. The teachers are very good and intuition paid close attention to my needs.
    Response from the owner:Thank you, Julien - it is great to hear that you had such a good time with our teacher David in Southampton.
    The formula at the teacher’s house which proposed by Intuitive language for me who is retired is the best formula. Why ? Share the life with the teacher but have free time too allowed me to progress in speaking english. That was my goal. I had lucky to find with Maria an exceptionnal teacher and a guide for discover the Maltese history with visits in different places and so enrich my vocabulary. I thank very much Maria for her time, her cooking and her commented visits no forget her kindness.
    Response from the owner:Thank you Marcel - we are delighted that you enjoyed such a pleasant experience with Maria (and her excellent cooking!)
