1. Major Challenges Encountered by Students While Studying Abroad
2. • Many international students experience a number of different challenges unique to their life abroad. • We are not here to discourage you from problems, but we are preparing you to be ready and face them bravely. • In the following post, you will find the few challenges that students often find in a foreign nation.
3. 1. Language Barriers
4. ➢ Did they serve you duck eyeballs when your order was a chicken dish? Did you board the train to Spain and ended up in Russia? ➢ People might be using the local slangs and local words for a particular thing that might be alien to you.
6. ➢ The best thing is to practice more before the start of your studies. ➢ Do not be afraid of asking local people to pronounce words again. They are usually very keen to help you. ➢ To fight with such barriers, make the best use of the translator app.
7. 2. Homesickness
8. ➢ When something goes wrong around, you can really feel what loneliness is. Your family and friends will be hundreds of miles away. ➢ You will be going to get homesickness and its very natural. But it is just a phase, and slowly but gradually it will pass.
9. ➢ This issue is likely to appear only during the first a few months before you have built up a new “social circle” and get used to the unknown city. ➢ To beat this phase, get involved in new interests, adventure or any activity to be part of the mainstream.
10. 3. Fear of Missing Out
11. ➢ Fear of Missing Out or FOMO is another common problem faced by people living in their own country, but it gets triple when you are in a foreign country thousands of miles away from your people and your comfort zone. ➢ FOMO is more or less a byproduct of doing something instead of something else.
12. ➢ Minimize the time you spend cruising around the internet and spend some time to explore the place.. ➢ When you look at the big picture, your night out in foreign country probably outdid the exciting things happening to your friends back home.
15. 4. Cultural Differences ➢ In one country handshake, is considered as a kind gesture and normal while in another country it is considered offensive and impolite. ➢ It is important to recognize that people from different cultures have are different in a variety of ways, including ◦ different ways of looking at things ◦ different ways of dressing ◦ different ways of expressing personality/goodness
16. ➢ Immerse the culture, and norms with open arms. Try to embrace the beauty of culture and act like local to be part of the group. ➢ It does take effort to establish and cultivate meaningful relationships, especially across cultural boundaries so make friends with at least 1 local.
18. 5. Time-Zone War ➢ When you are new to a country, the challenge is to keep a track of the time zone. ➢ There will be situations where you have to respond to the Skype call of your bank back in the country at midnight or mommy calling in the middle of a college lecture.
19. ➢ Keep track of the time zone on a smartphone. ➢ Add all the relevant time zones in your timekeeping applications. ➢ Try to remember the time difference by memory.
20. Enjoy the study phase of life. Take the journey of education abroad as a mission of life, and things will fall in place.
