I really enjoyed my time at PELA. It's amazing that you can meet people from all over the world in one place. I appreciate the personal and open attitude of the teachers and their professionalism. They always try to make lessons interesting and funny to create a good atmosphere of learning.

PELA has well-trained teachers, a good athmosphere and plenty of opportunities to improve your English. If I ever come back to the States to learn, no question which school I will go to--PELA!

Hello!

Welcome to the United States and Portland, and to our home!

We have had many international students for the last 20 years or so from many countries. We enjoy meeting people from other cultures and also sharing our home with them.

We look forward to meeting you. We hope you will have a wonderful experience in Portland and with our family.

The Baker Family

Hello!

We are a family of 4: 2 adults and 2 boys. We have a very laid-back household, and spend a lot of family time together. We are not looking for a room-mate, we are looking for someone who can become a temporary family member.

My boys have gotten very attached to our exchange students in the past, and we have taken our last exchange students with us on our trips to the coast, the mountains, and to visit friends.

We have enjoyed our last exchange students and we look forward to having another.

Sincerely,
The Peterson Family

Welcome to Portland!

We are looking forward to your arrival. Our family has been hosting foreign students since June 2002. This has been a very positive experience for us and we hope to provide you with an enjoyable and supportive homestay experience.

There are many things to see and do in and around Portland. We hope that when it is time for you to go back to your home country, you leave with very fond memories of your time here in Portland. Have a safe trip and I will see you at the airport!

Sincerely,
The Porter Family

We anxiously await your visit. Oregon is a great place to live. We have a little of everything here. It is only a short drive to the beach or the mountains. We have really enjoyed this past year with the students that have visited us here.

Welcome again to Oregon. We look forward to having you as part of our family.

Sincerely
The Price Family

Welcome to our home!

We are excited to share our family, in beautiful Oregon, with you.

We are a busy home. Sometimes we are not the neatest household, but fun, and full of life. We also enjoy cooking, baking, and when James starts barbequing, we suddenly find our house full of friends.

We look forward to welcoming you.

The Taylor Family

Hello,

We have been hosting students from other countries for over 11 years. We love to add to our family in this way. We do not consider ourselves a host family, we are your American family and while you are here you are a complete member of our family. When you return home we like to continue contact with you as we would one of our children.

We look forward to adding you to our family.

Sincerely,
The Burke Family
