Factors Determining Parental Decision Making

First, Psychological treatment rules with our children in Russia:

Sit down and understand why your children want to go abroad – whether it’s for professional or personal reasons. It’s important to know exactly what your children are striving for in life to be able to guide and support them.

Participate to search about the courses they are interested in, the universities they talked about and the lifestyle they can thrive in. This search will also include information on course curriculum, university life and accommodation options available abroad.

Reach out to friends and family whose children have gone abroad. Ask them about the challenges you are likely to face and figure out how to deal with them. The rule of thumb for this is to “be as specific as possible” and ask all your queries.

IFSM has been helping students achieve their dreams of an international education for the past 50 years. If you have any doubts or concerns, we are happy to help you.

Estimating the costs involved in sending your children abroad can help you make a better decision. However, it’s not just tuition that you should count into your budget. Consider other expenses like accommodation, food, health coverage, communications, and travel too!

Now that you’ve got an overview of what goes into sending your kids abroad, plan for it. Consider all factors including course selection, university, finances, visa, etc.

Be sure to have a general physical check of your children, a dental check, and a gynecological check (if possible). If necessary, make sure they have all relevant matters.

Yes, it’s troubling to send your kids thousands of kilometers away, which is why it’s important to ensure their safety. Make sure your children are insured before they leave and sign up for the insurance program.

Once your children settle abroad, discuss with them and plan to visit him. This will help you have some quality time and also give them the emotional support they need while adjusting to another country.

It’s important to stay in touch with your children abroad as settling in a new country can be very confusing. They’ll need both – your emotional support, as well as your guidance before they’re properly settled.

Here are the most important challenges of studying abroad:

Feeling like you're strange

Regardless of which country you’re from and which country you’re moving to, it’s almost certain that you’ll end up feeling “strange” at least for some time. You may find yourself wondering why your cup of coffee always seems to cost more than the locals.

Don’t let this discourage you. Virtually everyone I met while studying abroad was very encouraging and friendly.

Overcoming the language barrier

This is perhaps the most obvious challenge of studying abroad. Overcoming the language barrier may mean that you are struggling to learn a new language largely from scratch, or perhaps you think you are fluent, but find that you are unable to understand a strong local dialect.

So it will be difficult to learn the words students use, but the language barrier problem also disappears very quickly, once you indulge in it.

Get used to currency differences

Be sure to set up a fast conversion system for yourself, so you can mentally tell prices when buying things, and recognize the “normal” price of a commodity – ask locals how much they expect to pay.

Like most study abroad challenges, currency differences are one of those things that don’t really hurt if you’re only visiting for a short time, but have a big impact if you’re going to stay for a semester or more.

Stay away from your support network

Living abroad is great… when everything is going well. But when circumstances seem to be conspiring against you, you can really feel yourself. The usual “support network” of family and friends will be hundreds if not thousands of miles away.

This challenge is likely to be especially true in the first few months of studying abroad. But then, you’ll create a new support network and after a year or so, everything will be fine!

Public life in Russia:

Since the first moments of the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Russian capital Moscow has been developing at an astonishing speed and is today a modern mega-city, home to more than 15 million people.

Foreigners visiting Moscow for the first time fear theft, diseases, high prices, and in conversation with foreigners living in Moscow from Croatia, Spain, Mexico, the USA and Australia about the differences between life in Moscow and other European cities. From what the foreigners told us, we were able to conclude that:

The first feature on which all the respondents agreed was that the city never sleeps. Anyone can buy what he wants or get any necessary service at any time of the day or night with permanent traffic security patrols to make you feel safe and secure
Being unable to fill up your mobile credit is akin to shops in Moscow. Every point is crowded with people from around the city, such as shops, pedestrian crossings, restaurants, pharmacies, subway stations… 24 hour electronic payment machines are distributed. Croatian programmer Ivan Vucković says: “All you need to do is enter your phone number and put the required amount that will be transferred directly to your account.”.
In the same easy and convenient way, online accounts can be paid. You can pay municipal utility bills and other bills, taxes and even speeding violations through ATMs without having to go to the bank, as well as bank reports via SMS service for permanent information about your accounts and others

Language and important courses before going abroad

The student who willing excellency must take many useful courses before going abroad, so IFSM provided part of these courses free of charge and part of this courses with simple fee with intensification for all courses includes:

Russian Language

Human Development

We have developed a specialized curriculum for human development that contains the most important elements of communication with others and the rehabilitation of the student psychologically to deal with the Russian people in terms of customs and traditions and how to communicate effectively so that the student does not feel lonely or introverted there and the development of memory skills and how to overcome the barriers of education that He was accustomed to it during his years of study in his country, which is very different from the study in Russia, which depends on the application, understanding and mental abilities more than the ability to memorize.

Computer and Information Technology Course

It is a special course in which the student learns about the latest technologies used by the Russian people in public life in order to be abreast of the modern technological development in Russia

English Language

It is very important for the student because it is the first language they will use there so we have also prepared a specialized and intensive curriculum to master the language in a short period.

How can I be sure that my children are safe in Russia

Now Russia is a safe and civilized country, and is developing for the better. Russia is characterized by its magnificent ancient or modern buildings and its clean streets lighthouse at night, and the Russian people in general are civilized, cultured, gentle and not racist. Entertainment is available and increasing with the combination of Eastern Grey, and in Russia there are job opportunities and possible profitable investments and business projects at a cost is not large, and the tax rate is much lower than some European countries and the spread of mosques and Islamic centers all over Russia so it is a good place to settle.

However, the Foundation has developed a system and policies to increase the reassurance of parents, which we consider to be our responsibility before God towards parents and our children students abroad, which we carried voluntarily, begging God to inspire us right and He guides us to what he loves and satisfies
