Advice for Foreign Exchange Students: Come Prepared!
Foreign exchange students often suffer from anxiety, despite their desires for a new culture and new experiences. Ease this anxiety by communicating with your host family before you arrive. Send letters, emails and instant messages, especially if a student in the family will be attending school with you. Befriending a family in advance will help the transition go more smoothly.

Brush up on your language skills. It's important to be fluent in the host family's language. Perhaps one of the goals of the foreign exchange program is to become fluent in the language, which doesn't mean that you should be relaxed about your language skills before you go. Work on them every day for months before you leave. It will be easier for you to live in the country when you can openly communicate with others in the native language. Although countries around the world speak English, you still want to be respectful of the proper language for the country.
