Bewerbung für einen Austausch

Zitat:
Explain what you expect from the exchange and what you want to contribute personally:


The main thing I expect from the exchange is to learn how the american people live and to see the differences in the german and american way of life because I am very interested in other cultures. What I also expect is that I have the chance to improve my English so that I will speak it more fluently.

I said I want to see how the Americans, especially my exchange-student and his family, live but I also want to show them my way of life. If they like I will show them some typical german things or respond to their questions about me and the way I live. That is my contribution to the exchange.

Furthermore I think the experiences I will make with this exchange are relevant for my further life (weiteres Leben?). I am very excited of living with a family who has an other culture and maybe a different behaviour.

Personal information: Describe yourself as you and your friends see you. Show your strengths and weaknesses:


My friends say that I am a very self-confident and contented person but sometimes I am a bit to energetic. I like it to have many people around me because it does not make me happy if I am alone. My friends are very important to me and I will never leave my friends in the lurch. If I begin to work on something I have to bring it to an end. You can see this as a strength or a weakness but in my opinion it is important to bring something to an end. Another weakness is maybe that I am a bit too emotional. I am often quickly attached to someone. (Ich weiß nicht, ob der Satz so gut ist für die Bewerbung..?)

In my free time I do a lot of sports, for example dancing with my friends in dancing school or I go horse-riding. Furthermore I am singing in the school choir.
