Locations

The residence is located just across the road from ELC, close to public transport, shops and cinemas.

Meals

Breakfast and dinner are included every day. Lunch is also included at the weekends.

Internet access will be made available to students at the homestay but usually at extra cost. All students will have free unlimited internet access from our computer lab and WiFi service at school

Bed linen and towels are provided by the host family. Students usually wash their own personal clothing using the host’s appliances and with the host’s assistance. Ironing, handwashing or dry cleaning are in any case the responsibility of the student.

At the time of enrolment, we will need to know the students’ homestay requirements before we can arrange the placement. We will also give students the opportunity to indicate homestay preferences which we will try to honour as much as possible when finalising the match.

ELC may also be able to organise homestay placements for students with particular needs such as specific dietary requirements, executive homestay, or a room with a private bathroom.

Many host families only accommodate one student but some families welcome 2 or more international students. When that’s the case, we will make sure that there are no other students of the same mother tongue in the household.

We have a dedicated Homestay Coordinator who ensures that our students are always well looked after. We regularly inspect homes to ensure that the high standards are maintained. We actively collect feedback from all students about their stay with their host family to ensure that they feel comfortable and welcome.

Prices

Homestay placement fee: $375

Single room: $425/w

  • Extra nights are charged at $75/n (i.e. not weekly pro-rata).
  • A $110 surcharge applies for arrivals on Easter Friday, Easter Monday, Christmas day and New Year’s day.
  • An internet surcharge of up to $10/w payable directly to the host may apply for internet access.

The overall experience in Australia has been wonderful and it really helped me growing both personally and linguistically thanks as well to all the people I had the luck to meet during my stay.

Beyond my language skills, ELC has also helped me build a social life in Sydney. I’ve met so many friends from around the world, which is something I love about ELC—it’s so multicultural, and I’ve learned so much about different cultures.

Before joining ELC, my English level wasn’t very strong, especially in speaking. But since starting here, I’ve improved my speaking, vocabulary, and grammar, all thanks to the highly skilled teachers. They’ve helped me progress in the easiest and most enjoyable way. My teachers, Dorothy and Emma, have always been so kind and supportive, and I’ve truly enjoyed every moment in class with them.
