We are a marketplace that promotes trust and collaboration. These are just a few reasons why we have built the best ever class tools and services to surely assist and hone you into making the right decisions. Since life is about wonderful experiences, we want you to have experience that here too! Here’s how:
No surprises. Read reviews from other students and guests like yourself and learn about their own personal experiences. Then you can then decide which school or accommodation is PERFECT FOR YOU.
Guests are reviewed by those who have hosted them before and both can only leave reviews after they have a confirmed reservation.
Please note that these reviews were made by actually people and not computer generated or made up and most important the person who made the review has stayed, hosted and have been with another member or person in our community. Trusted reviews are the basis of a reputation system that fuels our community marketplace.
While reviews are the basis of the LanguageBookings reputation system, the references help people new to LanguageBookings get started building their reputation. Formerly known as recommendations, references are a complete enhancement to this feature. For you to find your acquaintance and for them to write you a reference, it will only take a simple click once you’re connected to Facebook.
Here at LanguageBookings.com, we strive to provide our users with the highest level of both security and professionalism in the best way possible! All hosts which are listed have the chance to become certified and be able to validate their identity.
To get identified, the host will send us copies of important documents like their Ids, a utility bill and (if applicable) Criminal Records. We will then compare the documents received with the personal data which the host provided to us for registration. If it will match, then we’ll mark the host as certified on our website giving details of if we have checked the ID or the other documents. For security purposes, the documents will not be shown for public viewing.
Your can easily review the quality seals and whether or not the school have been accredited by well-known associations to ensure that schools meet your expectations. We have an screening process where only a small percentage of schools interested in being represented on our website pass our thorough. Language schools must have a complaint procedure, and are contractually obliged to LanguageBookings.com to respond to any written complaint within 48h.
If you will ever need assistance, you always call our customer support whether you are a host, a school, a guest or a student. Before, during and after your course, we are here for you. You can easily contact our experienced and friendly consultants. We’re always just a click away through e-mail, phone call, skype or even live chat!
Acquaint yourself with potential hosts or schools, guess and even students with onsite messaging in which you can ask questions, lay out things you expect or just mingling with each other just for you to get comfortable before you make a reservation.

When you check a user’s profile, it gives you more insight about a potential host or school, guest or student. Also, through the profile you can check if the user has been certified, connected their Facebook, Linkedin and Twitter account and also if the majority of their review is positive and of course, you can always read their reviews and references as well.
There is a dedicated team behind our new Community Flagging Tools which will investigate listings, messages, profiles and other user generated content from the community. This is for every member of the community so as to provide security. We strive to maintain a safe and trustworthy marketplace. If you find suspicious messages or activity, you can always flag it for our team to take action.
Just for you to be safe, we have designed secure ways which will protect you from suspicious users and alternatively quarantine them before they can ever contact you or anyone for that matter.
