Testimonials Help Students Make Better Decisions
When it comes to studying abroad, one way that many students know what programs to select is by reading testimonials online. Many testimonials praise the things a school excelled at, while others offer tips to other prospective students. There are no right or wrong choices when writing a testimonial, but students must remember that these recommendations can influence other students considering attending the same school. What follows are two testimonials written by students studying abroad. These testimonials show the benefits of the respective programs and give students an idea of what to look for in a school or program testimonial.
The first testimonial is in regards to Dokkyo University and their Japanese language program. A student who took the program there writes, “The teachers are all so nice, and they really tried to help us with our studies. At first I was afraid that we had to study so many things, but I got really interested in it because the whole atmosphere is so comfortable. Apart from that, I was able to make friends with many of my classmates from other countries. Moreover, the teachers seem to work together very well in order to help us with our studies. At first, there seemed to be so many tests, but by the end of the semester I realized that I had learnt so many things and my Japanese had improved.” This testimonial and information about the program can be found here.
A student who took a summer program in Germany through CDS International wrote the second testimonial. This student writes, “It was great to experience first-hand the research environment and be included in frontline research. As a person majoring in chemistry, I was able to fully appreciate the value of this internship at the science level. As a person fascinated with German, both historically and culturally, I was able to recognize just how much this past summer has shaped me and matured my character. I returned to America with an earned confidence, knowing that if I can handle myself in such a wild experience, I will be more than prepared to tackle future challenges in my life. I have in a single summer progressed to a very ambitious level where I will only be satisfied with the best of options.' This testimonial and program information can be found here.
These are only two examples of student testimonials and can be used as a guideline when considering educational opportunities abroad. There are many options for students, and studying abroad offers a unique experience. By reading testimonials and school ratings, you can easily find the program that might be best suited for you.
