Language Exchange
Exchange Viewbank College offers students the opportunity to participate in exchange programs to Germany and Japan. Students strengthen their understanding of language and culture, as they are immersed in the language and in daily life. Participants become members of the local community by attending school and staying with host families. In addition to developing a stronger understanding of language and culture, exchange participants strengthen and develop their communication, analytical and problem solving skills. Participants also establish life-long friendships and foster a deeper appreciation of home and family. After participating in exchange programs, students have an enhanced interest in global issues as well as a broader general knowledge. Prospective employers look favorably upon experience gained while living overseas and knowledge obtained from learning another language and culture. The exchange programs are an exciting opportunity for students who are studying German or Japanese to further develop their language acquisition skills and intercultural understandings.
