在學校上課整體感覺..整體我很喜歡,老師很親切,如果你有什麼不懂,老師會用最簡單的單字和肢體語言跟你解釋,讓你能很容易知道,學校也提供很好的學生休息室,給我們可以吃午餐及跟其他學生聊天,每一個月學校也會舉辦活動,讓我們去參加。

對於住宿的感覺,來這裡我最喜歡我的宿舍,宿舍餐廳的飯很好吃,而且宿舍常會舉辦有趣味的活動,室友人也都很好,只要他們有什麼活動,他們也會邀請我們,並帶我們一起參與,晚上一起吃飯聊天,雖然一開始聽不太懂,但久了英文會進步,也會有不同國家的室友,你們可以一起聊天一起交流不同的文化。

對於城市的整體感覺,這城市每個人都很熱情,走在路上路人會主動對你笑跟你打招呼,雖然在這裡物價都比台灣高,但這裡比起其他城市便宜很多,如果想要遊學又沒有很大筆的錢,南卡羅萊那大學是一個很好的選擇!!!

分享這次國外遊學跟最大的收穫
原本我一直煩惱,我的英文說得這麼爛,來到一個人生地不熟又語言不通的國家,只有我一個人沒有認識任何人,我該怎麼辦,直到我真的來到了這裡,我很慶幸有這機會自己也沒有放棄這個機會,來到這裡發現我之前所想的都是白擔心了,雖然英文很爛但只要你試著說加上肢體語言,別人都是聽得懂得,我收穫最大就是,不管想做什麼事,不要放棄,做就對了。踏出台灣才知道自己的不足,台灣有很多地方還沒這麼進步,這可能就是增進國際視野吧!!~~
