All our homestay hosts have detailed profiles, including photos of themselves, the room where you will stay, their home and the local community, as well as references and evaluations from previous guests. And because we want you to have a great experience on your homestay, all our hosts share their interests and hobbies on their profiles. So you can find one with similar interests and use our secure messaging system to get to know them before you book.

During the stay with the English speaking homestay family in Canada 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. 

The second largest country in the world, Canada’s landscape appears boundless. From coast to coast the scenery is mesmerisingly beautiful. Frozen jagged coastlines give way to majestic peaks surrounded by shimmering lakes and rippling expanses of grasslands and savannahs. Surrounded by three separate oceans, at 151,019 miles long, Canada also has the longest coastline. A diverse climate from the subarctic North East to the temperate South West dictates that much of the expanse is sparsely populated and the majority of Canadians live closer to the border with the USA. The influence of the arctic is strong and nature rules in the Nunavut Province, where the Northern Lights and polar bears are common sights. A blend of the indigenous population and several immigrant groups, Canada has a spectrum of cultures offering a range of culinary experiences. The large cosmopolitan cities of Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal are trendy and stylish. Ice hockey is the much loved national sport. 

Some English teachers living in Canada 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.

We’re confident you’ll find one where you want to stay, that shares your interests, and even your diet or religion. In short, booking a stay with a Canadian homestay host through Lingoo is a totally immersive, fun way to learn a foreign language.

Lingoo homestay hosts

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.
