Become a host in Sydney with EF

Clear blue waters, golden sand beaches and a unique blend of Asian, British and South Pacific culture form the city that often becomes the favorite choice among a large numbers of EF students.

Our students travel to Sydney to experience true Australian culture first hand, meet new international friends and improve their language skills. During their time abroad students are looking for a home away from home and every year EF host families in Sydney open up their home to provide our students a chance to experience maximum cultural immersion by living as locals – with locals.

Join the EF Host Family Program in Sydney today and become part of this great cultural exchange as well as giving students a profound experience that can change their view of the world – and might it change yours too.
