Trang 1TOPIC: THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF
STUDYING OVERSEAS
We mostly do wish to improve our knowledge for a better life by the way of studying abroad And in most case, we choose to study in developed countries to get a progressive education The reality is that there are more and more young people choose to study abroad rather than in local universities In my opinion, studying overseas will bring to
us both the advantages and disadvantages
First of all, when studying abroad we have a very good opportunity to improve our language Since we live with local people surrounding, we practice with native speaker in every aspect of life The environment there force us have to use English day by day Therefore, naturally we have chance to practice and improve our language
Secondly, when we live in a new environment, it offers chance for us to broaden our mind We experience the culture, custom, lifestyles and self-survive ability as well People live in their own way and they face with problem in positive ways We interact with different people come from different culture Especially, you may make friends with many kinds of people from different countries It should be interesting for us to have friends around the world and learn from different languages and cultures
Furthermore, studying abroad is the best way for us to learn from new high technology and methodology that we never get before in hometown
We may touch with the modern world that we used to see in TV only And then, our life experiences much fun when life is totally different from our previous one We will experiences more to be independently and self-confident That is really useful living skills for us
However, life in another country may not always be beautiful as we wish The first tough aspect is that we may get shock with the culture and their life style rather enjoy with something new While we have to adopt

in foreign country is quite expensive Apart from tuition fees, we have to pay for hostel, living expenses and others Some students have to work during duration course Consequently, it distracts our mind from studying
to earning money and somehow it affects on your study outcomes
At last but not least, new environment need to be adapting is a real challenge for every foreign student While changing different cultures and customs may influence our mind, somehow it causes a victim of discrimination and makes us become less confident That leads to the fact that we may turn into a struggle for survival in a strange country If we
do not have enough physical and mental strength, we will fail to adjust ourselves in the new environment As a result, we could neither study nor getting beautiful experiences as we have expected
In conclusion, apart from studying abroad offers great opportunities for a better future, it also has challenges for every foreign student For international students, I think the most critical way of well-study is being good at managing time and know how to adapt to new environment However, new environment need sometimes to absorb, explore and understand more about the country and people surrounding I believe that everything we do in this life will have two sides affect in both positive and negative way The important thing is that since we choose our own way; just strive to be the best one
