In recent years, more and more students tend to survey abroad.

, students should prepare these kills when they live with parents. Preparation plays a crucial role in the oversea trips and reduces cultures shock in some international kids.

However

, studying abroad is a difficult challenge because of some disadvantages. New students are often lack of experience so they easier be defrauded and stolen money from bad people. In some countries still occur racism and students can be bullied by local students. Failure to cope with the problems can make kids feel helpless, homesick and in worse cases, they have a breakdown.
