Studying Abroad
Studying Abroad
Attending schools abroad has many advantages. In the first place, we can see the strong points and weak points of our nation and therefore widen our vision and broaden our minds. Second, we can travel widely, visiting famous scenic spots and making friends with the local people. Thirdly our ability in the second language may be improved quickly. For all these advantages, it is really worthwhile to study abroad.
However, there are also some disadvantages in attending a foreign university. The most serious problem is the language barrier. Most of the students will find it difficult to understand what the teachers are saying. Besides, for lack of knowledge of the customs and way of life of the local people, they may run into trouble in dealing with various situations. Thus, misunderstandings often arise.
Therefore, given an opportunity to study abroad, one must consider both sides of the factors carefully before making up his mind. On the whole, it is a good thing to go and study abroad
