Has anyone got a school they would recommend for an oil exec who wants to do a 3-week course in the UK and stay with a host family? Preferably in a beautiful city and a luxurious host family setting. Must be a school which focuses on adults and he doesn't want to meet other Arabs. His level is Upper-int+. This must be pretty exclusive.

You might mention what his goal is in terms of his studies as well as what he wants to study.

I had a student who had a good experience at EF's Executive Language Institute in Boston. They specifically cater to international business executives (with prices to match). I believe they have one in Cambridge as well. The materials he brought back were of a much higher quality than the usual EF fare as well.

One of my students gave glowing reports of OISE, she stayed with someone in Cambridge. She made a huge amount of progress after an intensive 2 week summer immersion program.
