1、Advantages and Disadvantages of Studying AbroadAdvantages and Disadvantages of Studying Abroad In the US,the number of university students who study abroadincreased dynamically.154,168 American college students studied abroadfrom 2000 to 2001 compared to 48,483 students from 1985 to 1986(Rooney4).Th
2、e more students study abroad,the more organizations have to workflexible.“The university has tried to track the changing interests ofits students and the increasingly global nature of its curriculum bysetting up programs in countries that did not attract as much interesta generation ago”(Rooney 2).A
3、 decade ago,the only destinations ofstudying abroad were in Western Europe,but there are many places forstudents to study abroad all over the world now(Rooney 2).Why students want to study abroad?For the reason,they can experiencemany amazing things.Studying abroad is not only to participate in clas
4、sesat university but also to stay in different cultures and languages.Toknow other cultures is interesting,because bad manners in a country aresometimes normal things in the other.If you can speak more languages,we can talk to many people.Nowadays,it is very important to communicatewith people who a
5、re from other countries because of businesses and tounderstand other cultures.This experience will positively affect onesfuture.Furthermore,ways of thinking and knowledge will be wide andflexible.Therefore,studying abroad has many benefits.However,moststudents who desire to study abroad tend to thin
6、k that they can experienceonly good things.This thinking relate to pamphlets because they only saygood things.A studying abroad pamphlet says,“Learn a language,broadenyour perspective,explore your identity,challenge yourself,increaseyour self-confidence and decision making skills,re-evaluate yourpri
7、orities,values or goals,and discover a new or family culturalheritage”.If students read this,they will definitely feel like studyingabroad,but they have to know opposite side.Besides,the most importantthing to remember is why they go overseas.The purpose of studying abroadis,of course,to study.Some
8、foreign students die because of accidents or committing suicide.International students experience not only good things but also many badsituations.However,bad things are rarely showed in public.Actually,a Japanese student was killed in Australia last year,but we did not hearany information after a f
9、ew days of the first news.Students commit suiciderather than die by accidents.We meet with bad experiences because of thegap of cultures and languages,or we just do not suit the country.We cannotpredict until we go to the country and stay.In addition,these badexperiences affect our study.Moreover,th
10、e worse situations are,the morewe feel homesick.Consequently,everything makes us frustrated.Peoplewho want to study abroad have to know both good and bad sides.There are mainly three advantages of studying abroad,which are tobe able to learn foreign language,experience fun things,and study muchharde
11、r than doing in their own countries.On the other hand,threedisadvantages are predicaments of communicating with people,getting usedto a different culture,and tendency to be with people who are from samecountry.One of the most beneficial things of studying abroad is to be ableto learn foreign languag
12、es from daily life.To speak more than twolanguages is necessity now because we have many chances to talk to peoplewho are from overseas by business and even daily life.Most companiesrequire us whether we can speak another language or not today.It is notunusual that people can speak more than 2 langu
13、ages fluently any more.It means that borders of each county are getting low,and more people goout from their own countries recently than a decade ago.“We thinklanguage proficiency is one of the best things that can come out of studyabroad”(Rooney 2).As she mentions,studying abroad equals to learnfor
14、eign language.Naturally foreign students can learn another language.The more they improve their language skills,the more they can enjoy theirlives and make many friends who are native speakers.What do you expect when you travel abroad?You will expect differentexperiences from your culture.Of course,
15、you can feel difference,butif you really want to experience different culture,you have to stay there.Otherwise you will not understand the culture in depth.Another advantageof studying abroad is that you can experience many interesting things.For example,there are different religions in different co
16、untries.Mostly,East Asian countries are Buddhism,Middle Asian is Islam,and Christianityis the one of the biggest religions in the world.There are many uniqueor mixed religions all over the world.If students go to these certainplaces,they will experience different religious and traditional events.It
17、is also very important to understand other cultures and people.Theymight feel weird,strange,or even sad,and annoyed,but these feelingshelp their thoughts wideand flexible becausethere is noright or wrongculture.My friend,Satoko Kogure,talked about her opinions of studyingabroad.“Im enjoying studying
18、 abroad in the US.I met a lot of people,and I could get different opinions and thoughts from them.I sometimesfeel tired of this society and culture,but many people encourage me.Whatmakes me really happy is that people try to understand me and they areinterested in my culture.I like talking about cul
19、tures with people whohave different cultures”(Kogure).She appeals to her emotions andcharacters.She mentions what she got and felt something warm from thiscountry and people.In addition,she said that she was discriminated byAmerican students at university.However,people who discriminated herrecovere
20、d her.They had not considered her situation when they understoodwhat foreign people feel about staying other countries.Finally,sheappealed that,“What we have to do when we communicate with foreignersis not to be ethnocentrism.Everyone is also different even if they arefrom same country.Thus,we canno
21、t say that this ethnic group is rightand others are wrong”(Kogure).There are no bad things to know othercultures.The third advantage is to study much harder.Local students canunderstand what the teacher talks about during the class,whereasinternational students have a difficulty of following classes
22、 because ofthe gap of language,so we spend much more time for studying than studentswho are native speakers.Moreover,international students pay tuitiontwice as local students pay.It helps us study harder.Therefore,we haveto study hard to get good scores and not to waste money.Actually,manyforeign st
