Georges Gibney, before becoming famous as a swimming trainer, already had the same behavior. My family had sent me to learn English in Ireland and the agency hosted us with families.
For me, it was at Georges Gibney's.

Wow. The podcast series "Where is George Gibney" mentions that there were Spainish Students (~ age 13) who stayed with the Gibneys...it's only breifly mentioned in Episode 9, approx. 28 minutes in.

In South Africa we have male and female school water polo coaches at exclusive schools fiddling with the students...it's an ongoing issue everywhere. We also had the Bob Hewitt (tennis coach) case which took year's to get closure .
