This vast nation is the third largest in the world and as such is home to a spectacularly diverse landscape. From deciduous rain forests and snowy mountain peaks to red rock deserts and gigantic glaciers, virtually every terrain is represented. Stretching more than 3000 miles, the Rocky Mountains mirror the Mississippi-Missouri River running the length of country between Canada and Mexico. The country has 58 stunningly beautiful National Parks to explore with iconic wildlife like buffalo and bald eagle. Awe inspiring global icons such as the Statue of Liberty, Golden Gate Bridge and the White House dominate city skylines. American football is akin to a religion, with baseball, basketball and ice hockey also widely popular. American culture is a melting pot of Native American, European and African influences. From the funk and jazz of New Orleans to the pop and hip-hop of New York, America has an unrivaled music scene running through its city’s veins.
During the stay with the English speaking homestay family in America you or your child or teenager will be completely immersed in the language, culture and daily family life. Many homestay families will also help you to organise an English course, without the need for an expensive residential language school.
Some English teachers living in America also provide homestay accommodation and teaching in their own homes. If you are interested in learning English by staying in your teacher’s home, please click here.

Lingoo homestay host profiles are diverse. They range from traditional and single-parent families to single adults and retirees. But all of them believe that learning a foreign language should be fun and full of the discovery that classroom settings simply cannot offer. They will help you learn and practise the language in everyday situations and while indulging your hobbies. Some hosts can also arrange to pick you (or your child) up at the airport or station and transport you there again when you return home. The Lingoo contract is also there to help unaccompanied children pass through immigration.
We ensure every homestay is safe, secure and great value for money. The identity of every host is checked personally by the Lingoo validation team before they can register with us. Together with references and visitor evaluations, contracts for each reservation, and support from the Lingoo team when misunderstandings occur, we ensure that your homestays are the ideal way to improve your language skills. Even your deposit is covered by our cancellation rules.
