Chenyao Li - International Scholarship Winner
My Life in Canada - I have been in Canada for three years. The International Student program was very helpful. For example, the International Assistant, field trip, and other activities. Once I arrived Canada, I went to my homestay directly from the airport. The program will do an evaluation every two months, which is very nice. This evaluation will give students chances to tell their feelings about their homestay and solve problems that they do not like about their homestay. There are many activities going on for international students. The program plan the field trip for international students almost once a month. This trip combine all the international student in Abbotsford. Therefore, we have more chances to make friends. This is a very good activity because an international student will not feel alone. Another activity that I loved was international lunch. This is so sweet. We will have "Welcome Lunch" and "Farewell Lunch". Plus the international assistant will ask student what type of food we prefer. The Abbotsford International Student Program has the international assistants for different school and they really take care of every student. The word ‘perfect’ will be the word I use to describe my three years in Abbotsford. I cried and laughed. I will keep trying my best to achieve my goal! Thank for everyone I met at this place, I love here. This place becomes my second hometown. Thank you very much!
