A language holiday is an exciting time for a child as they meet new people and are exposed to a new culture for the first time. Parents are able to use Lingoo to give them peace of mind to ensure they can share in this excitement. A homestay hosted language holiday involves sending your child on their own to a foreign country to stay with a family that are native speakers of the language that your child is learning.

Due to number of factors - including safeguarding regulations, paperwork, cost and logistics - the number of school-led language exchanges is declining. The result of these impediment and restrictions is that the number of teachers/schools willing or able to offer language exchanges for pupils has decreased, creating a situation where children could be missing out on opportunities to develop their language skills, thereby reducing their employability in an ever more global market.

In a global economy the demand for language skills from employers is on the increase. Learning a second language can help increase your child’s career earning potential when they enter the world of work. In the United Kingdom, it is estimated that two-thirds of businesses look to recruit staff with foreign language skills. A language skill gives an employee an in-demand skill that the majority of the workforce does not possess.

In recent weeks the weather in the United Kingdom has taken a bitterly cold turn, as mid-winter brought ice, snow and freezing temperatures. Whilst spring and summer may seem a long way off, when it comes to organising a Lingoo language exchange or homestay language immersion holiday, now is the time to start planning ahead. Lingoo provides a platform for arranging language exchanges with other families or hosted homestay immersion holidays if you want to send your child on a language immersion holiday but do not want to host a child yourself.
