So this is my first post
in full of English in my weird blog. So I am really sorry if it is make you
confused when you read it, my English was not good yet. :D. Have a good
comment! Remember, it is my convince opinion. :D
So I will write down my
opinion about schools abroad.
What? Do you mean schools
abroad like schools abroad? Why you do not write about panda in Africa, or
something funny in Japanese reality show or something such as Indonesian fact
that will make us laugh?
Hehehehe…
So, here we go.
After we passed the
national senior high school we usually confused to choose the university where
we want to. There is a domestic school and abroad school. Who would not want to
study abroad? It seems like everyone wants it. I was one of them. The graduate’s students from prestigious universities
like a graduates from abroad school is usually "most wanted".
Schools abroad have many
advantages and disadvantages when we compare it to domestic schools. First, we
had the opportunity to learn a foreign language in the country of our destination.
Because by mastering that language it will help us in our daily lives in school
and day. Then, we will find the book that we can not be found here, because the
budget of education from the Indonesian government is still very low when
compared to other countries, like our neighbor country Malaysia and Singapore.
Thus, the books in the library are still lacking and incomplete. If we compare
with abroad we can improve our knowledge in that country because they have a
lot of books that written directly by their scientist there even it is more
expensive then. And one of the most important is their learning culture. We
will indirectly follow their culture in their country. Of course we do not want
to look weird. Because of this, it will help us more disciplined and will be
able to make it as a positive habit when we arrived home. I mean the positive
cultures.
If we refer to the
financial side of our destination state, we should choose states which were
already developed. If the state of our destination were already developed, we
could collect money as a part-time employee, and then the wages is enough to us
to live day to day. It is possible when we can separate our time wisely.
Scholarships and sponsorships are also typically having large amounts and we can
save it. And one of the most exciting things is having friends from abroad,
even as told by several people who had to adapt abroad that there is usually
difficult. That is one of the disadvantages. In addition, we will be very far
away from our family and can only be connected through mobile phones and other.
Exactly we can not connect as “live”.
I think we will fear to
parting with our families. When we imagining that we will alone there for the
first time, we will think twice then. Language difficulties also seem to be a
problem that must be overcome. It is different when it using the English
language, because it has been taught since we were on elementary school in
Indonesia. Different education system In Indonesia, over the years we are
taught to listen to the teacher or teacher teaching where students just
participate passively, that occurs most. Of course we have to adapt to this
situation if we want to graduate with great predicate. So I think studying
abroad is required to “fill” our life experience. If you think you like
challenge I mean. It is very rare chance. So we will have a chance to get to
see our homegrown from different perspectives and learning culture and positive
culture with superb technology. Live is only once so there is only one option
we should choose for each step of our life.
