How to host a foreign exchange student from japan?

Should I Become a Foreign Exchange Student to Japan or Korea?

  • Should I Become a Foreign Exchange Student to Japan or Korea? have you ever spent time in school in either country for any length of time? if you have then please describe the time spent and the people. im nervous about what choice to make because i hear they can be racist towards someone who isnt asian or has the desired pale skin. were the students friendly? were the classes difficult? was your host family kind? were you ever discrininated against or bullied? how was the uniform policy and what kind of uniform did you have? what were appearance policies? like hair, makeup, and son. was it a co-ed school or an all girls or all boys school. what was the weather like? did you find your time enjoyable or unbearable?

  • Answer:

    I hear Japan is very hard, I heard it's work work work and the person I heard this from also said he wished he wouldn't have even went to begin with but he wasn't gonna give it up because of all the money his self and his parents put towards it. He also said he barely got any sleep. Also my friend from Japan is ex change here in Canada and she said where she goes to school you can't wear make up, can't have your hair dyed and funky colors like high lights or anything like that. And you have to always wear your hair in the pony tail or also no earrings. I don't know I would never consider Japan, including because of how difficult it must be to learn Japanese!!!

I do not know much about Japan, but I can tell you information about Korea. In a Korean school environment, the kids there are very focused on their school work. Yes, the classes are difficult and definitely challenging. Most Korean schools and students are known world wide for their excessive and hard studying. I am Korean, and I do know that some Koreans aren't as friendly as others. We seem to be very judgmental, but just as it is in America, you find a variety of people in Korea or any other nation. There are people you will get along with and people you won't. There are people who are extremely nice, and others that just don't care. In Korea, foreigners are rather welcomed. Koreans see Americans and Europeans as beautiful. They admire their pale skin and blond hair, with their blue eyes and small faces. Most high schools in Korea do wear uniforms. They expect their students to be clean, respectable in appearance and neat, tidy, organized, etc. Anything a private school in America would be expectant of their students. The uniforms are usually simple, with the boys wearing pants and a clean shirt, and the girls the same, although most girls wear skirts with little ribbons. Most high schools also have gym uniforms, which are more casual wear. There are many all girls/boys schools in Korea. My own father taught at a all girls high school as a gym teacher for 13 years. There are many co-ed schools currently though, and more so than ever before. Weather is usually the same as America, although Korea is known for its heavy rainfall at times. Korea does not nearly have many earthquakes as Japan does. Korea is widely known for its music culture, or KPOP. You will find that many Korean students are interested in KPOP and their celebrities and dramas on television. They use this as their past time, and admire people on television just as many kids in America or anywhere else in the world do.
