Benefits of Hosting International Students

Why should you become a host family? Welcoming international students into your home can be a hugely positive experience for both the students and the hosts.

HSI host families tell us that they love hosting our students because:

  • they teach our hosts and their families about new cultures and languages.
  • our students add something special to the home environment.
  • they can remain life-long friends with the students they host.
