Become a host in Cape Town with EF

Our students choose to learn English in Cape Town for its unique blend of cultural richness and natural beauty, which provides an immersive and engaging learning environment. Hosts welcome these students to this friendly and vibrant city and offer them the opportunity to practice English in diverse settings.
