Just earlier today I received an email from a former student of mine who is currently living and working in New Zealand and she absolutely loves it!
I keep in touch by email with countless numbers of students but just today I realized how many “international” pen pals I have developed while teaching at Smith’s School of English.
Many of our students go overseas, most often to continue their English studies in a native speaking environment and it is such a joy to read of their experiences and witness their English improve, both written and spoken.
A number of these students return to our classrooms after completing their studies overseas and go on to motivate others to also pursue their goals.
At this very moment I have “international pen pals” in New Zealand, several in Australia, a couple in England, a couple in Canada, one in Mexico, a couple in Italy, a couple in the U.S., one in the Emirates, and one in Malta!
I always encourage my students to be adventurous and if they are lucky enough to be able to spend some time in another country, they should definitely go for it!
