LTL homestay families are carefully selected in order to give students a warm and welcoming experience. Staying with a homestay family provides you with the opportunity to really use your Chinese once you finish with classes for the day. Whether you’re enjoying a meal at home, playing ping-pong with the neighbors or going on a weekend trip to visit relatives you’ll be living an authentic Chinese life.

Homestay families have apartments in central Shanghai, making travel to the LTL campus fast and convenient. Most LTL homestays are within walking distance of campus, and all are within a 30 minute commute. Our homestay questionnaire form also ensures you are placed with a family compatible with your living preferences. This type of cultural immersion is an ideal way to begin your course of Chinese study.

Depending on preference and availability, the apartment may be shared with other foreign students or local residents. Apartments are conveniently located for traveling to the school (four subway stops) and offer the opportunity to make new friends in Shanghai.
