Exchange Student Survival Kit  (English, Paperback, Hansel)

Bettina Hansel has written a book specifically to help students understand better the unique experience of international exchange programs and to avoid many of the common misunderstandings and problems that may occur in the course of their adjustment to a new culture, a new family, a new school and a new community. Based on her years of research and professional involvement with AFS Intercultural Programs, Dr. Hansel has filled the book with examples taken from the experiences of dozens of exchange students from a broad spectrum of cultures. This is a valuable resource for American students going abroad or foreign students coming to the United States.
