Tips for
studying abroad
The decision
must be made in a thoughtful way and must be based on the interest and desire
to learn a language. Sometimes it is the parents who propose to their children
to study abroad, and other times it is the children who raise this possibility,
in whatever way the student must be convinced. Although, of course, doubts are
normal.
Studying abroad
is the best opportunity to perfect a language, however, the student must have a
good foundation.
Facing a course
abroad requires, in most cases, medical insurance, in addition to a visa or a
residence permit. So it is necessary to deal with the
paperwork in an organized and timely manner. At Study-Abroad we advise you on
all administrative procedures, but do not leave everything until the last
moment!
Enjoy and take
advantage of a course abroad
Welcome is
important. Do not jump to conclusions or pigeonholes, ask everything you need.
Relax and you will see how in a few days you will be one more.
Being in a
different country means understanding that it is also a different culture.
Enjoy the cuisine, the traditions and the customs. Dive into the local culture
and adapt to it!
Do not forget
that you are in a foreign country which implies not being able to do things as
you would at home. Be prudent and stay safe and avoid problems. Learn your new
address and carry it in your wallet.
Each
educational center has its own rules that you must respect and comply with,
however incomprehensible they may seem to you. When you decide to go to a
residence or a host family abroad you voluntarily agree to follow its rules. We
recommend that you familiarize yourself with what is or is not allowed.
