How it works (과정): host families invite their international students for meals, outings, trips, festivities, and so on. (현지인 가족이 외국학생을 (특히) 현지 휴일 (부활절, 크리스마스, 추수감사절등)에 초대하여 문화를 체험하게 하는 프로그램. 현지에서 단기체류하며 영어를 자주 접하고 현지 문화를 더 깊숙히 이해하고 싶어하는 학생들에게 인기가 높음. |

Student: Good morning. I wonder if you could give me some information about the host family program for Thanksgiving. I saw a flyer about it on a bulletin board.
Program Director: Certainly. Have a seat and tell me a little about yourself. Where are you from?
Student: I am from Seoul.
Program Director: Sole?
Student: Korea. Seoul, Korea.
Program Director: Oh, yes, of course. And can you tell me more about yourself, your interests, hobbies, plans, how long you’ve been here, and so on?
Student: I’m a business major. I’ve been here for two years-I am a sophomore-and I plan to return to Korea to work in my father’s business. I’m 20 years old and I live in the dorm. In fact, that’s one of the reasons I am interested in this program. The dorm dining hall will be closed during Thanksgiving break. And if I don’t do something about it, I could starve to death.
