    You need to come through an exchange student program. Try contacting YFU or AFS. They have what is called "direct placement". That means the student coming has a guaranteed home (usually a friend or relative). The problem is that there are very few J1 visas being issued between the US and Britain. Again, your best bet is contacting a program for more info.
