EF High School Exchange Year - London

Rebe S

Leaving with EF to be an Exchange student for six months in England has been the best decision of my life!! I have discovered parts of myself that were hidden and got to grow in terms of confidence and self-esteem. I have received all the support and love from the staff, always there to cheer me up and congratulate me for my achievements. I would re-do it all over again and again, without changing a single moment. Being an exchange student is a roller coaster that's worth queuing for 🙂

Spending a semester in England with Ef was definitely the best decision of my life!

From the support in Austria with info meetings and a long preparation, to connecting with other students who, like you, have the experience ahead of them, but also with students who have already spent the semester there and talk about their experiences, everything is great. There are also dozens of opportunities in England to get in touch with other Ef exchange students, such as regional meetings, day trips to the big cities like London, Manchester etc. but also Discovery Tours in f.e. Scotland. Northern Ireland etc.
My host family was the perfect match for me and I am still close with them and visit them at least once a year! Overall, you simply grow as a person and become much more independent and mature. That's why I would definitely recommend a semester abroad with EF.

Thanks to EF I had the chance to live my year abroad in England. During this year I not only had the opportunity to improve my knowledge of English but I faced a path of personal growth having found myself facing many challenges that I had to face alone that led me to grow. In addition to the wonderful experience that I will bring for having lived a year in another country and having really visited many places I will carry on for a lifetime the ties with people known there. I would recommend ef both for the support that offered me pre departure and once arrived on site, both for the activities organized during the year to bring together all students from various areas and last because it is giving me the opportunity to share my story and interact with new students in pre-departure.

I chose EF because as an established organisation, I knew they would support me during my entire exchange year. Thanks to EF I got to live with the most amazing host family, I attended a British Sixth Form and I met exchange students from all over the world. It was an incredible experience and I could not recommend it more!

Ich kann jedem ein Austauschsemester/Jahr empfehlen, weil man von allem was man lernen kann ein Leben lang profitieren wird.
Es werden sich in dem Jahr/Semester so viele neue Möglichkeiten ergeben und auch wenn nicht immer alles perfekt ist und man mit Problemen zu kämpfen hat hilft das nur umso mehr um sich persönlich weiterzuentwickeln. Ich hab gemerkt wie ich mich im laufe meines Austauschsemesters immer selbstbewusster und erwachsener gefühlt habe und auch das ich mir selbst mehr zutraue.
