1. The Benefits of Studying Abroad
“The academic and professional experiences that I acquired in Canada are not the
only reasons why I encourage people to pursue their studies in Canada. In fact,
beyond the solid scientific knowledge that I acquired, it is the multicultural
exposure that I cherish the most. My professors were not only teachers but also
mentors that were willing to help students in any situation. They taught me the
proper way of learning and how to think critically.”
Sarah Larsen-Vefring from Germany
When you study abroad your education grows exponentially faster than if
you stay home. You live and learn in your host culture; every interaction is an
opportunity to learn, and to share your culture with others.
