Reasons to participate in this exchange…
P ersonal development
Through this exchange most of us were able to develop in a really positive way. We gained a lot of new experiences. A lot of us gained a lot more confidence, responsibility and also independence.
Language Skills
Traveling to another country and being forced to speak another language but your mother tongue isn’t always easy from the first seconds. Yet you will still even after only a few days massively improve your English while speaking to all the girls, parents, teachers and inhabitants there.
N ew friends
Who doesn’t like to meet new friends and be connected? After doing this exchange you will surely know more people than you did before and have found new friend in a whole different country. You can now be connected to people outside your home country and expand your horizons through it.
New culture
Visiting a different country can be really difficult and tough, because different country means different culture and that can sometimes be quite a challenge. But while making this exchange you are always guided and are with other people that help you, so you can really take it all in and learn various new things about the British cultures and their way of life.
Experience
A student exchange like this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Most people don’t get the chance to travel with their school friend for a week to another country. Even after school most people don’t have the time to travel much, much less to enjoy and learn alongside to it. There aren’t a lot of opportunities in school life like this one, to take part in an exchange that easily, so you should definitely consider and use it.
