Our wonderful international students will be coming from all different parts of Spain. They will be both boys and girls between the ages of 14-18. The program is a bit different from a typical study abroad program in that it is immersion based. This means that the students will not attend classes. Rather, they will practice their English through everyday communication. While the students will have field trips/excursions twice a week, most of the time will be spent with their host families.
Host families are asked to provide a bed, three meals a day, and light transportation. Families can choose the gender of their host student. Additionally, American students are eligible to earn up to 60 hours of community service for participating in hosting a foreign student. This experience will allow you to cultivate long-lasting friendships and promote cross-cultural connections in your community.
Prior to your student's arrival, you will be required to attend a Host Family Orientation. At this meeting you will learn important details about the program and meet the EHP staff that will be working with your students during their stay.
Students will be here 7/28-8/23

Description
By hosting an international student with EHP, you will introduce your family to an exciting new global experience. As a host family, you will get to share in your student’s daily discovery of the U.S, hear the excitement in their voice when they tell you about their activities, and watch their language skills develop. During these adventures together, you will break down the barriers of language and culture while creating lifelong friendships! Our short term programs are perfect for our Host Families' busy lifestyles. Hosting with EHP allows you and your family to experience another culture without having to make a long-term commitment.
