Teacher Resources
We always encourage our schools to help the exchange student to learn more about the United States in general. It is also very helpful if the U.S. students are informed about the exchange student’s home country. This knowledge will help foster mutual understanding on both sides.
The links below offer great resources on various different countries as well as the U.S. You can recommend these links to your students for individual studies at home.
