Unlike children, who are flexible, adults often find it hard to change the way they speak. This is why even the top, or smartest adult students have difficulty with pronunciation. There are several things that an international student can do to improve his or her pronunciation. One method is to sign up for a pronunciation class. Studying pronunciation can help students to understand the rules of English, but in order to practice speaking, students often need to be exposed to English outside the classroom as well. This is why many students say that studying in an English-speaking country greatly affects their English. Living with native speakers can help students can also learn important cultural information. This can help to prevent misunderstandings that can occur when people from different cultures live together. Living with someone from another culture can be difficult. International students are usually excited when they first show up at their new homes, but after a few months they may start to think about their home countries and get homesick. Students who are homesick get depressed quickly. They might cry a lot or want to be alone. This makes it difficult for them to make friends and learn English. T/F 101.
