International Student Blog

International Student Insurance has just undergone a face-lift, with a new improved look! With the original site design dating back to 1999, it was decided to change the layout and navigation to make it easier to read, understand and find the right insurance plans quickly and easily! You can now also access the various plans directly from the homepage so no more wondering where to click…..

Check out the new design and let me know what you think:

These are new passports that basically have a chip that contains all your personal information on it and obviously have been launched as a new security measure - but from the article below, how safe are they!

If you are like me and trying to learn a new language, its not an easy prospect doing this on your own. Although there are books, CD’s, Computer programs, etc… the only real way to learn is to get tuition and be part of a class! Thats what led me to look around online and I found this great site Language-Learning.net.

They have listings of over 10,000 language schools from around the world offering 88 languages in over 115 countries - by far the best language directory online - and what’s even better they offer the site in 6 different languages.

Check it out today!
