Language Systems International (LSI) is a private English language school with campuses across Southern California. The Downtown Los Angeles campus is located on Wilshire Boulevard in the heart of Los Angeles, close to Hollywood, Beverly Hills, USC, and UCLA. LSI offers Intensive English, Conversation, Business English, TOEFL, TOEIC, and vacation programs, and issues F-1 student visas and I-20 documents for eligible overseas students.
USH offers homestay accommodation for international students attending Language Systems International in Downtown Los Angeles. Everything is included in one flat monthly rate — your furnished room, Wi-Fi, utilities, and an English-speaking American host family. No lease to sign. No credit history needed. No furniture to buy. Just arrive and settle in.
Living with an American host family is one of the most effective ways to accelerate your English progress — and it's the natural complement to what you study at LSI every day. The conversations at dinner, the errands, the weekend routines — all of it is real English practice in a way that living alone or in a shared apartment with other international students simply cannot provide. Many LSI students find that their speaking confidence improves faster than they expected once they're genuinely immersed in a home environment.
Short-term stays of 4 weeks and longer multi-month stays are both available, whether you're enrolled in a short vacation program or a full intensive English course. Airport pickup is available upon request.
Yes. USH places international students attending Language Systems International's Downtown Los Angeles campus with verified American host families in the Los Angeles area. We handle the matching, the paperwork, and the logistics so you can focus on your English studies from the day you arrive.
It's one of the best fits. ESL students at LSI are already working hard in class to build their English skills — homestay extends that work into every hour of the day. Instead of switching back to your native language in the evening, you practice English naturally through daily life with your host family. Most students who choose homestay notice a significant difference in their fluency and confidence compared to students living in shared housing with other international students.
Do you accommodate study abroad groups at LSI Downtown Los Angeles?
Yes. If your institution is sending a group of students to LSI's Downtown Los Angeles campus, our group accommodations office can arrange placements for multiple students with host families in the LA area. Contact our group office with your program dates and student count.
The minimum stay is 4 weeks. We accommodate both short vacation programs and longer intensive course enrollments. We work around your LSI program schedule and can adjust your end date as your studies evolve.
