WRITING TASK 2 - STUDY ABROAD

Hi all, i have written an essay and hope you guys can read and give me some advise, thanks alot ^^

Topic: It is true that there have been being an increasing number of students going abroad to enter a university for higher education. While I accept that this trend leads to some certain drawbacks, I believe that benefits the students get far outweigh these drawbacks.

On the one hand, studying in an oversea country for higher degrees has some disadvantages. Countries having this movement suffer a brain-drain, which leads to a shortage of trained and talent manpower. Many fields requesting highly educated human resources have needs that have not been met due to the efflux of good students. Besides that, students studying in a foreign country may face some difficulties such as language barriers, culture shock, homesickness and monetary issues. It could be a negative impact on their ability to learn and even leads to a decline in academic results.

In spite of the problems mentioned above, I believe that moving to a different nation to study brings various benefits which do outweigh these drawbacks. Firstly, it provides the student great learning conditions with high-quality courses, experienced teachers and professors, as well as modern and adequate facilities. These superior resources facilitate their learning and help them to fully develop their potential. Secondly, travelling to a different country for university education provide opportunity to study with students of other nations. It not only develops their communication skills, especially in English, but also widens their outlook and encourages them to think in a different manner, as they socialize with students of entirely different cultures and ethnicities. Finally, moving to another country to study enhances the job prospects in today’s fiercely competitive job market. It will make a bright spot in their curriculum vitae that enables them to have more chances to find a good job in oversea market, which helps them get a high salary.

In conclusion, it seems to me that it is advantages in a variety of ways for students to study abroad.
