The education market in the United States has just opened to international students under the age of 18. At present, there are very few China students attending high schools in the United States. In contrast, in countries such as Britain and Australia, due to the early start of high school, there are often many China students in the same school, which leads to the weakening of the language learning environment. Therefore, I choose to study in American high schools, and the language environment is better than other countries.
In addition, the ESL courses set up in American high schools are arranged directly by high schools, and there is no language preparatory school. For international students, there is one less threshold for entering high school from a language school.
Second, a higher proportion is promoted to an American Ivy League school.
As we all know, it is very difficult for high school graduates in China to enter the United States for their first year of undergraduate study, especially in Ivy League schools, because domestic students not only have to prepare for the heavy college entrance examination, but also arrange the SAT and TOEFL exams in the United States, which greatly involves their time and energy, while the SAT test center in China is only located in Hong Kong, which is not only difficult, but also extremely inconvenient. Moreover, a considerable number of American Ivy League schools do not directly recruit international students overseas, which also makes a considerable number of students lose the opportunity to enter American Ivy League schools. If students choose to attend high school in the United States, they can not only take the SAT exam very conveniently, but also directly take many preparatory courses that AP, IB and so on must take before entering famous schools. Students' learning experience, extracurricular activities and club activities gained in the American high school system are also more recognized by the American education system. Due to the different educational systems, students get the recommendation letter from teachers and the evaluation from the dean, which are not available to domestic students. These are very important conditions for students who want to attend prestigious schools.
Third, a safe, stable and effective learning and living environment.
Because of China's educational system and cultural habits, China students' independent living ability, psychological quality and environmental adaptability are relatively weak. At present, boarding schools in the United States basically accept students, and the management is very strict. Students live and eat at school, which avoids the maladjustment between China students and local families. At the same time, through the collective life in the school, we can create more time to contact with local students in the United States, so that we can adapt to the local learning environment more quickly, learn the ability to live independently and think in multiple ways in the international environment, and lay a good life and thinking habit for future development.
Fourth, children's quality has been fully developed.
Another advantage of attending high school in the United States is that the United States attaches great importance to cultivating students' all-round quality education, especially in high school. In China, once students enter senior high school, all centers of schools, parents and students are centered on the college entrance examination, students' interests and hobbies are stifled, and their basic skills are severely restricted. In the United States, local high schools attach great importance to the cultivation of students' comprehensive quality, and there are many elective courses, such as vocal music, instrumental music, physical education and so on, so that students can develop in an all-round way and exert their potential.
