In recent years, many young people decide to further their study abroad. What are the advantages and disadvantages of studying abroad?
A much debated issue these days is whether young people should pursue their study further abroad. Personally, I believe advantages of studying abroad outweigh its disadvantages.
Firstly, it is widely accepted thatstudying abroad plays acriticalrole in allowing young students to broaden their horizons. More specifically, various kinds of cultures and customsabroad enable youths to open their eyes and hearts to novelties they have never experienced before.Furthermore, overseas students have found themselves more independent due to improving a variety of skills, such as communication skills, critical thinking skillsand time-management skills. All theseskillspracticed and perfected by group assignments and in-class discussionsconsolidatetheir presentation and interaction abilities.In fact,these youths’ future successes are built upon these invaluable treasures.
Admittedly, some drawbacks do exist when it comes to overseas study, such as, due to the language barrier, being difficult to make a living and struggling in social activities.For instance, local employers are not willing to hire international students, because they cannot speak fluent English. Thus, numerous students choose to go back to their country after graduation. Nevertheless, these problems can be overcomeas long as overseas students are willing to learn and hang in there. As a matter of fact, a great number of international students havesuccessfully proven themselves in terms of coping with this obstacle and have set up their family overseas.
In conclusion, young students should be encouraged to further their study abroad, because it will bring them much more merits than demerits. Although there are inevitable difficultiesfor them in doing so, such as the language barrier, young students will surely conquer those problems if they are of great determination.
