Go for it! Don't be afraid of difficulties and challenges, because they are exactly what make life more interesting and strengthen our character. The main thing is to believe in yourself and your abilities. Even if your English level isn't that great, don't sweat it! I've seen many students with, to put it mildly, poor English improve day by day. Start practicing at least 3-4 months before flying to America, watch movies in English, and start thinking and speaking in English. Basically, you need to know a certain set of words, and grammar knowledge won't be that useful, since even Americans themselves don't often speak grammatically correctly (those of you who are good at grammar, get ready to spoil it a little). By the way, here is a link to a decent site - http://www.moeleto.com/vocabulary.html (Vocabulary for Work and Travel participants. There you will find the most necessary set of words that you will definitely need in America). In general, don't be afraid that something won't work out! My friend and I went into total uncertainty and didn't even imagine where we would live and work! And we managed just fine! You can do it too! You need to take action! It might happen that you will never again have such a unique opportunity to see America with your own eyes, to feel those unreal, breathtaking emotions when you find yourself in an unfamiliar country, on a completely different continent, so far from home! After all, life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away... The main thing is to be confident in yourself, smile, be friendly to everyone, and everything will work out for you!
P/S Good luck to everyone! Thanks for opening my blog... and I hope you liked it!)
We must do everything we must, and everything we want, before that time, knowing that we will never return to this in our lives again.
