If you are currently planning a year off, taking the time to learn English could make for a wonderful once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Of course, you will have plenty to consider before booking your flight, but here at The Harvest English Institute, we are on hand to answer any of your questions and support you throughout your year studying with us.
There are plenty of reasons for learning English abroad, but below we have highlighted some of the main benefits you will enjoy throughout your year studying.
- Learn a new skill – Choosing to study English during a year off is a wonderful opportunity to combine this time with learning a new skill. It is a well-known fact that learning a new language is far easier when you are immersed in a language while living overseas. You will enjoy plenty of opportunities to practice your language skills, which will develop leaps and bounds over the course of the year.
- Experience a new culture – Another great reason to immerse yourself in a new country to learn a language is the chance to experience a new culture. From trying new foods to enjoying local holidays, you will make wonderful memories that last a lifetime.
- Meet new people – You can meet tons of new friends with whom you will enjoy fun experiences while you study. By exploring and getting involved in the local community, you will almost certainly befriend some locals too!
- Discover new interests – During your time studying abroad, it is likely you might discover a new interest or hobby. You might decide to join a sports team, take a cooking class, or develop a love for photography as you enjoy exploring your new city.
- Further your career – As the international business language, learning to speak English can potentially help you to develop your skills, enhance your resume, and open new doors for you in your career field.
- The opportunity to travel – When you are not studying, you will relish the opportunity to explore your new home city as well as its surrounding areas. Visit the sights, take in the views, and see a variety of different landscapes.
- Grow in confidence – It could be your first time traveling solo or possibly your first time living away from home. Moving to a new country can appear daunting, but it’s one that will take you out of your normal comfort zone. At the end of your year studying with us, you will be able to look back and be amazed at how your confidence has grown.
A year off is an amazing opportunity that many people only dream of. Make the most of yours and begin a year to remember by choosing to study English in the US at The Harvest English Institute.
