Indonesian way of life impact

Social/Cultural
Since we leave our country the social and cultural impact is very clear. I decided to come to Indonesia and it is the other side of the world for me. It is not the same read about a certain culture that live inside it. The social and cultural learning in this internship have been enriched and reciprocal. The foods, the roads, the clothing, the way of live are very different for me. The purpose of AIESEC internships is the cultural learning, and development as global leaders, I understand that I really found all of this here. We can get a personal and intellectual grow also. It is not only an exchange with Indonesian people; it is also with other interns of different countries. We never can get all together in the same place, but this opportunity help us to expand our ideologies and learn, in my experience, about Brazilian, Portugal, China and German way of lives.
Religion
Truly, Indonesian country is characterized for their particular religions and way of life. The predominant religions are Hinduism and Muslims. For me have been very interesting know more about their ideologies and traditions, because in my country only a few people practice them. For me, their religion determines their daily routine, their food, education and political status. I lived with a Muslims family and I learned a lot of things about them. The family is the center of the society, is the first society group and in this group they educate their children about Islam principles and transmit it generation by generation.
Education
My experience working in Malang schools have been very important, because I had the opportunity to see different educational levels. In Kauman School we follow a formal curriculum, because as an international school they promote the English like their second language, they use the technology and creativity to have a better academic advantage. Also, with AIESEC interns they offer a global vision to their students.
At the other part, Aksara School, it’s a poor school in which the teachers don’t have the same skills to offer, but the love and enthusiasm to help the children to have goals in their lives. Although we didn’t follow a formal curriculum, the experience for me was beautifully and I felt very good to help others. I am sure that Portuguese, Spanish, German and English language classes from our interns was enriched for them. It was a short time to share, but the cultural exchange and the global vision that they had can help them in a future to choose what they want for their lives and how they can contribute to their society.
Conclusion
I really want to say thanks to AIESEC Organization for the opportunity. In confused and problematic moments I had people that helped me and I never was alone. Thanks to you all for to do my stay in Indonesia more comfortable. I am very glad to be there and share with their people. Also, thanks to Kauman and Aksara School for let us the opportunity to teach in their institutions and share reciprocal learning and a beautiful moments with Malang children.
