Sample Letter
Dear Editior,
Many people ask the question, “Why study abroad After all, there are many great universities and schools in China that attract great professors both local and foreign.” I think that while this is true, this gets things slightly wrong. The question isn’t that people think the quality of their local university is not adequate, but rather how studying abroad helps and benefits the individuals in their own study and career plans.
By studying abroad, Chinese students get a better understanding of other cultures and countries, and learn to see themselves as global citizens. As a result, they can better understand China’s place in the world and how they can contribute to world peace and development.
In addition, overseas students can learn cross-cultural commnunication skills, which will help them understand how they can participate on the world stage. There are so many places in the world with hurting, needy people. With such skills and knowledge, they can better lend them a helping hand.
Finally, when our students return home, they can share their experience with others. There is a wide open world which they first learn about people from other countires, and their struggles and challenges.
In conclusion, the best way to get is by giving, and the easiest way to be loved is by loving others. I hope everyone will agree that there is a wonderful world out there which can contribute and help, and they can best do this through student exchange.
Best regards,
Liu Ping
