How do you get invited to people to people student ambassadors?
NOTE: Anyone can go that can afford it will go. They interview you, but turn nobody away. Teachers can accept students, but not deny them.
Students can be invited to the local information meeting through direct nominations by teachers, former student ambassadors or their parents. In areas where we do not receive direct nominations we enlist the help of student listing organizations which are the same organizations colleges and universities use to recruit students for their programs. Our goal is to allow as many qualified students the opportunity to participate in our programs. Students can also request an invitation on line.
Regardless of how students receive an invitation, all students must be selected through an interview process. If you choose to enroll after your information meeting, students must submit three letters of recommendation and be interviewed by local delegation leaders. We rely on this selection process to help us accept the best students and ensure that they are appropriate candidates for the program.
If nomination information is available, we can provide that information, please give us a call at 800-669-7882. We look forward to speaking with you!

How much will it cost to drive from Toronto to new Orleans?
It really depends on what kind of car you will be driving in. I have been driving back and forth from Louisiana and Cambridge, Ontario for 4 years. One way for me would usually be between $250-$280 including a night at a hotel. Here is a breakdown of cost I use. Gas...$180; motel...$60; meals...$20. Each person decides how much they want to spend on a motel and food. The gas is something you do not have a choice in. Hope this helps.
What are some phrases you should know for a Japanese exchange student?
Here are some helpful phrases:
Introducing yourself:
"How do you do?
I'm [insert name]
Nice to meet you."
-slight bow.
Hajimemashite - [hah-gee-meh-mah-she-teh]
[insert name] desu. - ["name" deh-zz]
dozoyoroshiku [doh-zoe-yo-low-she-ku]
*slightly bow*
Tip: Keep your eyes down when bowing. Don't stare at them when bowing!
- Often, Japanese Exchange students are very polite, so they might need to be prompted to sit or eat or sleep.
- Even if they are tired, they will often stay up and wait until the family goes to bed.
- Or wait until they are asked for food, instead of saying they are hungry.
To make them feel comfortable, reminding them they can get snacks, or sleep whenever they want would be polite.
It's okay to eat, (now).
(Ima), tabetemoii desu yo. [(ee-mah)/tah-beh-teh-moe-ee/deh-zz/yo]
It's okay to sleep, (now).
(Ima), netemoii desu yo. [(ee-mah)/neh-teh-moe-ee/deh-zz/yo]
It's okay to sit down.
suwattemoii desu yo. [sue-wah-slight pause-teh-moe-ee/deh-zz/yo]
Tip: The first "t" above in suwattemoii, indicates a slight pause in speech before saying the rest of the word. This pause should only last less than a second.
Please eat.
tabetekudasai. [tah-beh-teh-ku-duh-sigh]
Please sit.
suwattekudasai. [sue-wa-slight pause-teh-ku-duh-sigh]
I will treat you (to a meal).
gochisoushimasu.[go-chi-soo-she-mah-sue]
Tip: This expression only works for meals.
Would you like to try this food?
Kono tabemono wo tabetemitai desu ka? [koe-no/tah-beh-moe-no/wah/tah-beh-teh-me-tie/deh-zz/kah?]
Let's go! (somewhere)
Ikimashou! [ee-key-mah-show]
Are you feeling alright (sick)?
Daijobou? [die-joe-boo?]
What do you want to do?
Nani wo shitai desu ka? [nan-ee/oh/she-tie/deh-zz/kah?]
Tip: Remember, your exchange student may be fluent in English, or just a beginner. To be polite and make effective communication use these tools:
- Speak slowly in English, but not to offend them.
- Throw slang out the door. IE: Saying that you are "going to run to the store" and then grabbing your car keys, will not make sense to them. Also, "gunna", "wanna", etc, maybe unknown to them, so remember to use the full words. :)
- Use simple words. Their vocabulary may be limited. Avoid using unnecessary difficult or lengthy words, so they can understand.
- Avoid lengthy questions. It's really embarrassing to not be able to understand questions. Make them simple, and avoid restating too many times in a row. Asking "What is your school's name?" May be easier than "what school do you go to in Japan?"
- Invest in an English to Japanese Handbook. I've given you a few helpful hints, but a little dictionary or full phrase book will help with any misunderstandings, and you'll also be able to learn Japanese while they learn English!

Why do rivers wear away the land?
See, the previous answer was wrong. The rivers wear away the land because of a agent in the river that is water. Water gradually, mostly quickly, goes through the soil, making it too soft. Then another strong stream of water erodes the soft soil (sediment) and wear away with it. This soil is taken forward and forward till it reaches it's destination.
