Professional Homestay Services with Japanese Understanding

Your Trusted Bridge to London Life

Japanese student in homestay

As a British Council registered accommodation provider, we bring together deep Japanese cultural understanding with over 15 years of professional homestay expertise in London. Our unique strength comes from combining local knowledge with a genuine understanding of both Japan and London that can only come from lived experience.

Our director’s journey in Japan spans five years of living and working within the education sector, specifically focusing on helping Japanese students prepare for overseas study experiences. This invaluable time was spent working directly with Japanese schools and agencies, understanding the expectations of Japanese students and their families, and developing a deep appreciation for the cultural considerations that make a homestay truly successful.

Our Japanese cultural integration is led by our native Japanese expert, who brings over a decade of UK living and working experience to her role. As a cultural advisor and team leader, she ensures our entire organization understands and responds effectively to Japanese students’ needs. Having successfully navigated her own transition from Japan to building a career in London, she guides our support team in understanding everything from communication styles with host families to adapting to British customs, allowing us to offer practical, culturally-sensitive guidance at every level of our service.

Since our founding in 2007, we have grown from a small agency serving international interns to become one of the largest accommodation providers for international students in the UK. Our work with Japanese students has been a cornerstone of this growth, helping us develop specialized expertise in supporting Japanese learners. As a British Council registered provider for both adults and under-18s, we combine this cultural understanding with rigorous professional standards.
