在學校上課時我也喜歡與同學互動。西方社會的上課方式和東方社會有很大的差別，在美國，老師喜歡同學上課多發言討論，提出自己的看法，即使看法不同，老師也會鼓勵並尊重不同的意見。另外，老師也喜歡同學分組討論，在上課中發表，這樣可以培養學生自己主動思考及團體合作的能力。一般在台灣，老師通常是只授課，學生回家複習並準備考試，無形之中減少了不少學習的樂趣。而在課堂上有不懂的地方，下課時也可找老師討論，加拿大的老師都非常樂意在下課時間讓同學來問問題，上課若有不懂的地方可於下課時間找老師發問。

要融入當地生活，免不了一定要用英文溝通，所以我建議多與當地同學互動，交朋友，多參加社區活動、校內社團或旅行等，都有幫助，如果是住在寄宿家庭，也可與家庭成員多練習英語對話。我那時會每天固定用完晚餐之後跟寄宿家庭的爸爸媽媽聊天一小時，時間久了英文就會慢慢進步。對於不懂的地方我也會隨時問人，加拿大人都非常友善，也非常樂於回答問題。

なつみ

半年間の短期で語学留学をしました！

学校のあるテレハートは小さな町で、緑が多くとてもアットホームで暖かい雰囲気の町でした。
先生方もとてもフレンドリーで、クラス小人数授業なので和気あいあいととても良い雰囲気で、
質問すればなんでも親切に判りやすく教えてくれます。

私は滞在中は寮に住んでいました！
近くのショッピングモールまでバスがあったので便利でしたが、土日はバスがないので車があったらもっと便利だったなと思います。
大学のキャンパス内にあるので、大学の設備を全て利用できたのもよかったですし、現地の大学生の友達も出来て、会話の練習にもなりました＾＾
