Accommodation

Host family
In order to allow you to fully immerse yourself in the Californian lifestyle and Amercian culture in general, our partner school proposes staying with a host family. Students are provided with a double or single room and have the use of the common rooms of the house. You will also be provided with half board. Given the size of the city, the host families are located anywhere between 30 and 60 minutes away from the language school.

Leisure

Students arriving in Los Angeles know what to expect and are rarely disappointed! So many films have been shot here that we almost have the impression that we’ve known it forever. But don’t worry, it will manage to surprise you... The school offers an extensive program of leisure activities that will allow you to discover all facets of Los Angeles and its surrounds. Santa Monica Bay in the north, for example, will satisfy beach lovers with all the activities it has to offer: walks along the coast, swimming, surfing, diving and fishing. The cliffs of Point Dume are ideal for rock climbing, while Escondido Beach is the best diving site on the bay. According to the season, you can also alternate between the joys of skiing and mountain hiking, or even go whale watching from a platform located at Westward Beach. Surfers will head straight for Zuma, a well known surf spot and also the largest beach open to the public in Los Angeles county.
