Welcome, aspiring polyglot! An interesting consequence of being an exchange student is that you get to directly compare two different systems. In my case I actually did two years as a senior in high school in two different countries. Furthermore, I experienced private school in Belgium while I attended public school in the US. Both times I was taking Spanish class, something caused by the fact that they wouldn’t let me take English class in Belgium which was less than ideal.
