Teachers think that international student exchange would be beneficial for all teenage students . Do you think its advantages outweigh its disadvantages?

Educators believe that international student

exchange

programs have many benefits for teen students. They may have certain opportunities to learn about others' academic systems and social culture in their new school.

Otherwise

, several drawbacks may affect

this

issue, but I believe that the advantages can outweigh the disadvantages.

To begin

with, the

exchange

program

allows teenagers to

study

with a different academic system from their previous school.

For instance

, youngsters from developing countries may experience formal education in developed countries

such

as Japan, the UK, or the USA.

This

may broaden their horizon and mindset and can be examples for them to contribute to academic development in their home countries.

Moreover

,

this

program

provides cultural events attended by each student

exchange

.

This

might introduce each country's culture and they may be able to learn about other's traditional clothes, songs, foods, and even habits,

Consequently

, there are many positive effects from the

exchange

program

for their participants.

On the other hand

, teens that join

this

program

are often should postpone their graduation because they have to

study

some courses that not provided in their

exchange

school.

For example

,

this

situation happens a lot in college, when undergraduate students that participate in six months to a year abroad programs graduate late than their companies even though they finished their thesis in normal time. After they back to their home institution, they have to join some classes with juniors because they have not taken it and it

affect

Change the verb form

affects

show examples

their graduation time.

Moreover

, their tuition fee is

also

still run when they

study

in an

exchange

institution.

Thus

, basically, they must pay one year more than they should be. To sum up, the positive effects of

exchange

programs are it requires many international opportunities to

study

both in academic and non-academic

such

as culture and social lessons. The demerits are that students may have to pay extra tuition because participating in

this

program

means they have to delay their graduation. I think that the advantages can outweigh the disadvantages with wise preparation from the participants and their families or supporters.
