很多人问，是什么原因让我选择了枫叶国际学校？是父母为了让我体验到了一种别样的国际教育，收获一种更精彩和丰富的生活。于我个人而言，在上海枫叶国际学校学习，是一件快乐的事情，接受着国际化的教育，培养自我管理能力。这半年来的时间，我在学习中不断成地蜕变，更不断的成长。那我在国际学校又经历了怎样的学习和生活呢？
在这里，班级的管理注重培养我们的主人翁意识。班主任史老师真正做到了让我们成为班级的主人。各科任老师都认真负责，用新颖的教学方式，培养我们学习的兴趣，传授我们知识。让我从之前的死板读书变成了有技巧方法的学习。我一定要跟着老师上好每一节课，做好每一件事情，最后一定会有效果的。
在这里，学生与老师之间的相处模式十分融洽，师生的距离也拉近了很多，老师也是很平易近人，比起之前，现在的我跟老师的交流变多了，感觉老师不是那么可怕，听老师讲他们的经历和见闻，更能让我从中收获书本上得不到的知识。
在这里，我们的英语是分级的，每天都有一节中教课，与一节外教课。在英语课堂上，老师和同学有许多的互动，同学之间也会进行小组讨论，做一些关于英语的小游戏，适应全英文的环境，平时也会看英语名著等等。枫叶也有许多的活动，比如每周一次的各种社团活动。一开始，我还是有不想去英语演讲社的，到社团了之后我又转变了看法，对英语演讲也慢慢觉得有趣，喜欢。还有一些活动，例如万圣节的鬼屋活动，十分的惊险刺激，以及运动会活动，迪斯尼冬游活动还有激烈篮球比赛。使我们在刻苦学习之余，还有丰富多彩的活动。
在这里，结束了一天紧张又充实的学习生活，还有一群室友们在等待彼此聚在一起谈天说地。寝室的生活让我在枫叶除了收获知识，更收获了珍贵的友谊。知道了互帮互助，学会了相互尊重，了解了求同存异，感受了相亲相爱。逐渐的抛弃了以自我为中心的小太阳感受，通过班级活动、寝室共建让自己融入了这个集体，培养了积极主动的主人翁精神。
2018我走进了枫叶，一路走来，我是幸运的。2019我要带上幸运一路走下去，一路成长，期待着在枫叶遇到更好的自己！
