Common Challenges Posted by on Apr 24, 2008 in Spanish Culture

I just found and read a really terrific post on South American Adventures that speaks to some common challenges that language students encounter when studying abroad.

There is no doubt that most students struggle with the tendency to spend their time with their cohort, as opposed to really committing to reaching out and making friends with native speakers. Cultural divides, as well as our own human tendencies to cling to the familiar, cripple our ability to make the kind of progress we expect to make while living in a foreign country.

    to read or to see a film about south American adventures is to the educated to let proplr know of what is happening around the world; the earlier years or the past were influenced by the renaissance of the great nations.members of university syndicate are hence occupied with further studies in different disciplines,university offers various courses of studies, there may be cultural divides, but human tendencyis to cling together, still humanity varies as human endeavour pulls them in different directions.the educated in general are disciplined.to be friendly with the native speakers is fine , but there are many Nations!
