Home Host job, summer job, Brooklyn/ NYC/ Long Island

Youth Educational Programs, a non-profit English Summer Camp, is searching for kind, outgoing families or couples who would like to host a high school student from Northern Italy for 12 days this August. This is the easiest version of hosting and provides memories that last a lifetime.

Dates: August 6-18 (oh yes, short & sweet)

Schedule:
We'll have the students busy from 8:00am to 6:30pm everyday with English classes at St. Francis College in Brooklyn Heights and tourism around the city. Families will have plenty of time without the students home, but evenings to do something fun together, share stories, culture, and friendship.

What families need to provide:
- A bed or futon for the student(s) to sleep on
- Dinner and breakfast
- English conversation
- One day of planned activity with your family on "Host Family Day" (Saturday, August 13th)

Who are these students?:
They are all wonderful students (ages 15-18) who are traveling with their English teachers from Northern Italy (near Parma & Bologna). They are coming to practice their English and do tourism in New York City. They are kind and outgoing and oh-so excited to come to NYC! We have photos and letters from all of them so you can pick who will be staying with you and correspond with them before they arrive. Some students are best friends and want to stay together. The pairs can share a queen bed.

Transportation: We do the transportation for you! We'll be picking them up from your house in the morning & dropping them off again in the evening.

Compensation: We charged each student $200 for host family food expenses, so that will go straight to the hosts for the cost of food, extra water & electricity used, and host family day expenses. If you host 2 students, you will receive $400 to cover the costs.

All in all, this should be a very fun experience for all those involved. More info can be found at our website at http://www.yepcamps.com/HOST-FAMILIES.html. Click to see the calendar to see the students' itinerary. Pass the opportunity along to friends who may be interested. Enjoy the chance to travel without leaving your home and the perfect way to expose your kids to another culture.

If you're interested, please contact Lauren LaForge at 646-200-5924. The summer is right around the corner. Don't let this cool opportunity pass you by. Grazie!
