在學校上課時我也喜歡與同學互動。西方社會的上課方式和東方社會有很大的差別,在加拿大,老師喜歡同學上課多發言討論,提出自己的看法,即使看法不同,老師也會鼓勵並尊重不同的意見。另外,老師也喜歡同學分組討論,在上課中發表,這樣可以培養學生自己主動思考及團體合作的能力。一般在台灣,老師通常是只授課,學生回家複習並準備考試,無形之中減少了不少學習的樂趣。而在課堂上有不懂的地方,下課時也可找老師討論,加拿大的老師都非常樂意在下課時間讓同學來問問題,上課若有不懂的地方可於下課時間找老師發問。

要融入當地生活,免不了一定要用英文溝通,所以我建議多與當地同學互動,交朋友,多參加社區活動、校內社團或旅行等,都有幫助。像每年的滑雪旅行是我最期待的活動,不只可以去多倫多著名的雪場滑雪,也可以更加增進同學們之間的感情。另外,如果是住在寄宿家庭,也可與家庭成員多練習英語對話。我那時會每天固定用完晚餐之後跟寄宿家庭的爸爸媽媽聊天一小時,時間久了英文就會慢慢進步。對於不懂的地方我也會隨時問人,加拿大人都非常友善,也非常樂於回答問題。
