What preparations should children make before studying abroad?
The premise of studying abroad is the daily communication and study of language. If you don't learn the language well before studying abroad, you will have considerable difficulties in studying abroad. Many people think it's best to study English abroad directly, because a good foreign language environment can improve their language ability faster, but this is definitely not a good suggestion for China students who haven't got a solid language foundation. "Because, for students who study English under exam-oriented education, if they go abroad to study immediately, it is inevitable that they will not understand the class, can't open their mouths, and then fall into a vicious circle of learning. Therefore, we must first prepare for the language. " President Liu Shili said.
Academic preparation
Xiao Cui is going to study at the University of Denver in the United States. He studied automation at home and mechatronics abroad. He studied the original English six months in advance. As a result, as soon as he came into contact with the tutors of American universities, he immediately won the favor of the other side, took classes easily and got the best exam results among international students. Therefore, before going abroad, we should carefully choose the major we want to study in the future, fully understand the course content, and strengthen the study of future professional knowledge while learning English at home, so as to be comfortable.
Cultural preparation
There are differences between Chinese and western cultures, and there may be great differences in society, national conditions, economy and culture in different regions. Studying abroad for China students is also a process of getting in touch with and understanding the international social culture, and even using the international social culture to "develop themselves". Before going abroad, it will be helpful to fully understand foreign social, cultural, historical, economic, ethnic and employment information.
Foreigners like China's brush strokes, Chinese knots, cross-stitch and so on. If you have such "skills", or learn a few hands of Shaolin Boxing, Tai Ji Chuan and Wing Chun Boxing, you will not only keep fit, but also be widely sought after.
"If international students can demonstrate the local skills they have learned at home abroad, I believe they may be lucky enough to become a' skilled worker'. Knowing more about China culture and releasing more will sometimes really benefit China students. " President Jason Yin thinks so.
Life ability preparation
At present, the main force of studying abroad at their own expense is the only child born in the late 1980 s and early 1990 s They generally live beyond their means and are naked. Once you go abroad, it is actually the beginning of an international student's personal life, and you must face all kinds of problems of overseas life alone. Whether you have the ability to live is the key to the quality of life abroad. "So before going abroad, we should strengthen the cultivation of life knowledge, including scientific diet, living budget, disease prevention and the use of simple household appliances." Principal Murray said.
Future career preparation
Both parents hope that their children can find a satisfactory job after studying abroad. Children's future career development should be prepared from the moment the study abroad plan is produced. On the one hand, it is necessary to objectively analyze children's personality and interests and choose courses that children can complete their studies within their abilities. On the other hand, it is necessary to cultivate children's ability and awareness to plan their own career and prepare for their future career.
Fund preparation
Funds are the basic guarantee for studying abroad. Families of children studying abroad should be prepared to pay the students' overseas study expenses continuously, and formulate countermeasures in case of possible economic mistakes. Studying abroad costs a lot of money and lasts for several years. If you don't consider the capital reserve, let the children go out first. Once life changes, your children will face many difficulties in studying abroad.
What preparations do parents and children need to make to study abroad? 1. Parents' own psychological preparation.
Studying abroad, on the surface, is a matter for children, but it affects every parent's heart. At this time, in addition to children, parents' own psychological preparation is the most important.
First of all, studying abroad is not only an academic challenge for young children, but also a series of tests involving physical and psychological endurance. Then, before studying abroad, what parents should do most is to influence their children's emotions with their own psychological stability, and bring healthy psychological preparation to their children with their tolerance and behavior.
Secondly, don't let children be troubled by "studying abroad". The "study abroad" caused by parents' wishful thinking is most likely to cause psychological problems for children, which leads to obstacles in parent-child communication in the future because of insufficient psychological preparation, thus affecting children's study abroad life, and many children will never finish learning.
Therefore, in a sense, perhaps in the psychological preparation for studying abroad, parents should make more adjustments than prospective international students themselves. Parents should not pin their wishes entirely on their children, but should recover foreseeable losses while they can still change.
Second, help children adapt to the new culture.
Generally speaking, if children have difficulties in adapting to the culture of studying abroad after going abroad, it is usually directly related to their personality. For example, if you are introverted, you may be passive in interpersonal communication at home. "Once they enter a new environment and are not fully prepared, the impact of different cultures will make them even more at a loss. Some parents mistakenly believe that letting their children study abroad can stimulate their interest in active interpersonal communication and improve their ability in this respect. But in most cases, these children are not only difficult to get out of the predicament by going abroad, but also often have serious cultural maladjustment, which leads to counterproductive results.
Therefore, language communication barriers and living habits are very different. Before studying abroad, fully understand the destination country and make full adjustments to your psychological situation, so as to better adapt to local life. Parents should prepare relevant materials for their children in advance, or communicate with people who have studied in the destination country, so that children can make up cultural and customs classes before leaving for the destination country, understand local customs, living habits and etiquette taboos, and adapt to the gap caused by cultural differences as soon as possible. This is what parents can do for their children at present.
Third, arrange the trip in advance.
In order to make children familiar with the new environment as soon as possible, it is best to let children report to foreign schools one or two weeks in advance, learn about the school information and adapt to the school environment in advance. Don't put the start of studying abroad on the first day of registration. For example, American universities have a freshman registration week, during which various activities will be arranged for freshmen to guide them on how to register and join various organizations. Old students, even students from China organizations, will show freshmen around the school facilities and introduce how to use library cards. Therefore, it is best for prospective international students to attend classes one or two weeks in advance, so as not to find a classroom on the first day of class and not know how to choose courses. It also provides a lot of convenience for future school life.
Fourth, give your child a psychological stress check.
Preparation before going abroad is very important, but improper preparation may bring trouble to children. Spend money, food, etc.
Compared with preparation, psychological preparation is more important, which is related to whether students can adapt to local culture and study abroad in a short time. Therefore, according to the children's life performance in China, parents can take their children for psychological examination or receive special mental health training as a supplement to the physical examination before going abroad.
Teacher Zou Zhijie sincerely advises many prospective international students to focus on getting admission notices and visas, which is only the first step in their study abroad career. Before leaving for the destination country, you should make up the cultural customs class, understand the local customs, living habits and etiquette taboos, and adapt to the gap caused by cultural differences as soon as possible. More efforts should be made in psychological preparation, and a correct and healthy attitude can help children truly integrate into the new environment and adapt to the life of studying abroad.
What preparations you need to make to study abroad first depends on which country you are going to:
It seems that Australia is very hot at present, and Canada and Britain go to many places. In short, the Commonwealth countries are the main countries, and Japan, Singapore, France, Germany, Northern Europe, the United States and other countries can choose.
Commonwealth: Britain, Australia, Canada and New Zealand. These countries have relatively low requirements. In many cases, some people will choose to study preparatory courses or languages, so there are also the most people in China. The tuition in Canada is the lowest, followed by Australia, and the tuition in Britain is higher, but the quality of teaching is the opposite. Australia regards education as an industry, so there are some first-class universities, but there is still a big gap compared with the old Britain. Although Canada is not too prominent in comparison, it ranks first in the world in the United States from the south. It is indeed a very good choice to study in Canada before applying for an American school. And Australia and Britain are isolated islands. Britain is not a Schengen country. Even if you study in Britain and want to travel to the European continent, you have to apply for a visa one by one.
Asian circle: Japan has quite good universities, but it can be said that many people who go to Japan are gangsters. Besides, studying in a place where racial discrimination is so serious is really not a good plan. Korea doesn't want to talk about it, because I feel that studying in Korea is not as good as studying in China. Look, there are 1 10,000 Koreans living, studying and working in China now. I don't know how anyone can study in Korea.
There is also Singapore, which is not recommended because there is a feeling of unattainable. After all, a place where 76% of China people speak English is uncomfortable. There are great universities, but the tuition can go to better British schools.
Continental Europe: Germany, France, Spain, it can be said that studying abroad is ok. The problem is that because you speak English, you have to choose a subject taught in English, and your major may be somewhat limited. But the advantage of the European circle is that you can have a Schengen visa and travel around the world without a visa. However, the characteristics of these countries are also remarkable. Spain can learn economics, France can even learn chefs (to be honest, our chef school practiced in France in the last year, after all, French food is the best in Europe), and Germany can learn engineering majors including automobile design. In addition, the Netherlands is a great choice, because there are many universities in the Netherlands, the fees are not high, and the business atmosphere in the Netherlands is strong, so studying business is a good choice. Besides, Amsterdam is really great.
Northern Europe (Scandinavia): It includes Denmark, Sweden, Norway, and it can also include Finland (since the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Finland has tried to get closer here). The situation in these four countries is similar. High welfare, high taxes, social stability and peace. Denmark, Sweden and Norway can be said to be the richest countries in Europe, and the quality of education is not bad, among which Sweden is still a free university education! And like other European countries, it has a Schengen visa and is convenient to travel.
British Isles: Just two countries, Britain and Ireland, I have been to Ireland, and I feel not as good as Denmark, but Shannon Hotel Management College is quite famous. I told you about the situation in Britain before. Anyway, these two European countries don't have Schengen visas.
This is the national conditions, and then you need the following conditions. But for the sake of what I have said, I will give it to you first, and if I give it, I will make up the next part. I see someone asking the same question as you.
What preparations do you need to make to study abroad? Studying in the United States requires psychological preparation for living abroad.

This is just the general situation. If LZ is not clear, you can hi mine. I hope I can help you.
1. Language proficiency preparation
Many people think it's best to study English directly abroad, because a good English environment abroad can help students improve their language ability more quickly. However, this is definitely not a good suggestion for China students who have no solid language foundation.
After receiving traditional cramming and exam-oriented education for a long time, many students in China have no good autonomous learning ability and practical courage, let alone mastering English. If you go abroad to study at once, it is inevitable that you will not understand the class and be unable to open your mouth, and then fall into a vicious circle of learning.
It is suggested that high school students should make good language preparation before studying abroad, so as to integrate into the local society more quickly and communicate with others as soon as possible after going abroad.
2. Preparation for learning ability
There are different learning methods at home and abroad. Students who want to study abroad should improve their self-study ability and study some courses in western universities in advance. After all, reaching the standard of language achievement can only show that students have certain English ability, which is far from enough, because it does not mean that students can get good grades under the western systematic teaching mode. The teaching and assessment mode of overseas universities is completely unfamiliar to China students, and it is also completely opposite to exam-oriented education. As a result, many students who have achieved or surpassed TOEFL and IELTS are completely at a loss in foreign university classes, with poor academic performance, and even have to retake many courses, so that they are ordered to drop out of school or transfer.
3. Life ability preparation
Studying abroad, students are far away from their parents and rely entirely on themselves to manage food, clothing, housing, transportation and study, so self-management ability becomes very important. Studying abroad is actually the beginning of children's independence. He must face the problems of living abroad alone. In addition, team spirit, planning, time management ability, etc. Everyone needs to be prepared in advance. Whether you can have these excellent personalities and personal qualities is another key factor to ensure the success of studying abroad.
4. Application and visa preparation
Many foreign universities admit students not only by TOEFL, IELTS scores or "score-only theory" In the process of university application, we must not stick to the format and process, but objectively and realistically show students' personalized characteristics, academic performance and comprehensive ability. Students should ask experienced teachers to guide the application materials, but they must not make fake materials.
5. Preparation of funds
Capital is the basic guarantee and the first guarantee for studying abroad. Families preparing to send their children to study abroad should be prepared to pay the students' overseas study fees continuously and formulate countermeasures to prevent possible economic mistakes.
On the other hand, it is the most effective way to save family expenses and get happy returns by actively preparing children for studying abroad and making them complete their overseas study plans more efficiently.
6. Preparation of overseas network resources
You should join some international student groups before going abroad. Arriving at a foreign university is only the beginning of studying abroad. Studying and living abroad for four years or more requires one's own social circle and interpersonal network. Studying abroad, students will certainly encounter all kinds of problems. Students usually report good news to their parents, not bad news. In addition, studying abroad first faces loneliness. To solve this problem, we must learn interpersonal communication and have our own circle of friends. In this way, through the guidance and help of foreign classmates and friends, we can not only adapt and settle down faster, but also avoid detours in our study and life.
If you want to know more, you can go to the International Student Training Department of Beijing Foreign Studies University for online consultation!
Generally speaking, go to the United States to take the TOEFL and go to the Commonwealth to take the IELTS. You also need personal statements, that is, ps, transcripts, and application forms on the school website.
