Homestay
Homestay is a great way to jumpstart your cultural and language experience! Hosts and students develop close relationships, that often last a lifetime. The average commute time is currently 30-40 minutes. The Center's homestays are conveniently located close to Big Blue Bus stations or the Expo Line, so students have the freedom to travel at their own pace. Almost all new homestay families are less than 40 minutes by public transportation. A few families live right in Santa Monica so students can walk to school.
Home types vary, but in general, ELS host families live in safe neighborhoods in the West Los Angeles area including Santa Monica, Venice Beach, Westwood, Brentwood, Culver City, and Playa Vista. ELS students will be assigned single rooms, and some with shared bathrooms. All homes have wireless internet. ELS students will have access to kitchen and laundry areas in the home.
