Description

Homestay allows students and visitors to live in a local home as a member of the family. Our desire is to share our culture and customs with our international students and also to provide a warm and caring environment. Students living in a homestay environment, find that their English language improve dramatically through daily conversation and interactions with family members. Profile Vincent has spent the last 30 years working for various multinationals both listed as well as local companies in managerial and senior positions. Since Year 2002, together with his wife, Selina, they have decided to provide a Home-away-from-home environment for foreign students. Selina having worked in both Singapore and Malaysia, enjoyed a wonderful experience in the credit card, hospitality and aerospace industries, providing administration, sales and customer support functions. They have two lovely children, Krystle, age 19 years, and Ian, age 16 years.

Description

Homestay is an excellent way to make friends, learn about Singapore's multi - racial culture and at the same time practise your English/Mandarin while living in a safe and comfortable environment. Singapore families are generally kind, honest and friendly, and they enjoy meeting people from different countries. Students get their room furnished and they are responsible for keeping their room neat and tidy. Laundry services is optional and can be included in homestay costs. Usually the family will provide meals,although some families will do the student's laundry for them (especially the younger students). During the week, students receive breakfast and dinner, and on the weekends, students will join and be a part of the homestay family. Students are encouraged to help the family with everyday tasks, like setting and clearing the table, and to participate in the family's lifestyle. We are available to meet with students and their parents to discuss and plan a comfortable "home away from home" environment. Our Beliefs Homestay is the most important part of an international students' stay in any foreign country. Homestay can be one of the most rewarding experience in a student's life. Our family emphasizes great value in building a life-long experience for our homestay students.
