去澳洲學英文3個月ef好唔好?host family質素點?

Host Family = Home Stay (this is what the people in Australia usually call)

Normally, the home stay must reach some standard in order for them to allow student to stay at their home, so i think you don't have to worry. Futhermore, the school/organization of that home stay will keep an eye on the living condition. If you don't like or you have some complain, you can tell the contract person for the home stay you are living and a small little tips "don't afraid" to say what you want!!

But, before you choose the home stay, you must make it "very clear" about what you want/don't want!! This is to avoid any arugment later on when you live there.

The home stay have the responsibly to keep the student safe, so if you want to spend the few night outside, you must tell the home stay "very clear" by giving them the plan for those few days, give them the contract number that they can reach you, give them the name and the place you are going to stay.

Even though the living standard in Australia is high, if you are just planning to buy a few things, then i think AUD$3,000 should be ok (just in case of any emergency)

Single room is more convenience for yourself, so may be a good idea to choose a single room in a home stay (if you don't mind the extra $$)

Hope the information is useful for u!! ^_^ (my own experience)

食物質素差,差不多天天吃不飽,家庭的人精神有點問題,經常當你沖沖下涼的時候關掉熱水器,搞到病左十幾日.
如果你想換寄住家庭起碼要等兩至三星期,每星期都要去追問結果,但是如果家庭不喜歡你,或家庭有甚麼問題要你搬,你就要在第二天立即搬.
如果你有投訴,下次換一間更差的寄住家庭給你.
寄住家庭不單只有你一間學校的學生,還有其他不知名的男人,一個女孩子就要小心了, 因為,所有寄住家庭的房間都沒有鎖的,完全沒有私穩可言,他們可以隨時入你房偷野
