Become a host in San Diego with EF

All year round EF students from all over the world travel to the US to experience American culture first hand and at the same time develop their English skills. A large number of these students choose to go to San Diego where they find a near-perfect climate and big city life, combined with breathtaking scenery.

Our families enjoy learning about different cultures and becoming a vital part of our students times abroad

In San Diego our host family community has been welcoming these students with open arms, providing them a home away from home. Our families in San Diego enjoy learning about different cultures and becoming a vital part of our students times abroad and often long lasting relationships are created between families and students.

The EF Host Family San Diego Program is your opportunity to welcome a student into your home and show them everyday life in San Diego with its characteristic laid back, multicultural American feel.

Host family requirements

Our host families come in all shapes and sizes; single parent households, empty-nesters, couples with no children, and families with small children or with teenagers. They are expected to provide a bed, breakfast and evening meals Monday through Friday and all meals on the weekends, and, most importantly, a stable, caring environment.
