Why do you want to study in the USA
WHY DO YOU WANT TO STUDY IN THE USA?
Why do you want to study in the USA? – the question
which looks easy but which is not easy at all. The more I
think about the answer, the more difficult it seems to me. Of
course, someone may say that if you want to be successful in
your life, you have to know more places than only your
hometown. You must travel a lot, you must meet people, get to
know their style of life, their language, customs. It sounds
interesting, it sounds exciting – but what are the particular
reasons which led me to my dream about studying in the USA?
I cannot say which is the most important but I will try to
meantion them all.
My house where I live is in a small town. Life there is
often rather boring and stereotyped. Occasionally you can see
a theatre group or a singer. You can go to the swimming pool
which is quite small here. Sometimes you can go to the cinema
or to the club but almost everything comes to Svitavy late
and you must be carefull because theatre plays, films,
singers, actors can be away before you get a chance to see
them. This is probably the main, but not the only reason why
I want to leave my native town.
Another reason is more prosaic – money. I think that it
is usually easier for educated people to get a nice,
interesting job and earn good money than for less educated.
There are a few exceptions of course, like doctors in state
hospitals do really hard and useful work all the time but their
salaries are poor in comparison with „simple“ shop assistants
or waiters. I really do not want to depreciate their jobs but I
mean if doctors disappeared, many old and ill people would
die and if waiters or shop assistants went away, almost
nothing would happen. This is one of the problems of our
economic situation and nobody seems to be able to do
anything about it. I know it is not easy but I am an optimist
and I hope that one day education will be paid.
Next reason is, in fact, connected with the previous one.
Commanding foreign languages is a part of good education.
People who are able to speak more than one language have
better opportunities to get a job. The situation is not easy
now but I hope that in a few years young people of my
generation will have more job opportunities or hopefully the
economic situation will change. It is possible that the next
generation will be smarter and richer. I cannot say that
today‘s people are not smart. But they must still learn and
learn.
I have already written about learning and about how
much important foreign languages are for getting a good job.
The fourth reason why I would love to live and study in the
USA for a while is more connected with the present. Next year
I am going to graduate from a high school and I will take the
school-leaving exam. English is also a part of the exam. Good
results at the exam will help me to enter a university
I want to learn to speak English very well as I have already
written . Not all teachers I have had are people who live for
teaching others. Not all of them were able to take me up, not
many I will remember for a long long time. But fortunatelly I
have had good English teachers who helped me to find my way
to this language and who showed me how interesting studying
languages may be. Thanks to them I realized how travelling
abroad and being in foreign countries might enrich me.
I like getting to know new people and it would be a good
chance for making many friends. I like talking to people who
saw many things, who often travel and are funny. I am always
in a good mood when I am with them and learn about their
memories. I do not like being alone. When I am in a trouble
they can help me and they never dissapoint me.
I think that studying in the USA, and abroad in general,
is interesting for everyone. You can get new experience and
you can come back more well-read and more self-confident –
not only in a foreign language but in life itself.
