Katso Leo Harkimon video, jossa hän kertoo millaista on opiskella Boarding Schoolissa sekä pelata jääkiekkoa SFHA – South Florida Hockey Academyssa!

Leo vastaa videolla moniin kysymyksiin, joita meille usein esitetään liittyen koulun arkeen ja käytäntöihin sekä opiskelun ja urheilun yhdistämiseen ulkomailla.

Miten Leon kokemusten mukaan Boarding Schoolin opetus eroaa Suomen opetuksesta?
Miten opiskelu ja urheilu konkreettisesti ja aikataulullisesti yhdistetään?
Mitä jos kouluarvosanat laskevat liian alas?
Mikä on Study Hall?
Mitä mahdollisia haasteita vaihtovuoden aikana saattaa kohdata?
Minkälaisia tulevaisuuden suunnitelmia Leolla on jatkosta?

Koulu ensin, sitten jääkiekko!

Tasokkaan urheilun ja opiskelun yhdistäminen on Suomessa nuorille ja heidän perheilleen usein hyvin haastavaa. Universal Playersin kautta on mahdollisuus päästä opiskelemaan Boardin Schooleihin USA:ssa sekä Kanadassa, joissa oman lajin täysipainotteinen harjoittelu sekä laadukkaan akateemisen tason saavuttaminen on saumatonta, mahdollista ja ennen kaikkea miellekästä!

UP Global on auttanut 20 vuoden aikana satoja nuoria, jotka ovat haaveilleet urheilun ja opiskelun luontevasta yhdistämisestä ja opiskelusta ulkomailla. Näiden kuluneiden 20 vuoden ajan olemme kehittäneet toimintaamme ja laajentaneet yhteistyöverkkoamme niin merkittävästi, että tänä päivänä pystymme tarjoamaan vaihtoehtoja urheilijoiden lisäksi myös monille muille nuorille. Meidän avullamme maailmalle voivat lähteä esimerkiksi musiikkia, tanssia ja muita taiteita harrastavat sekä yksinkertaisesti kaikki seikkailuja ja kansainvälisiä kokemuksia janoavat nuoret, jotka haluavat itse päättää, missä asua ja mitä tehdä vuoden aikana.
Toimintamme on ainutlaatuista koko maailmassa ja nyt myös mahdollista yhä useammalle nuorelle! Olemme neuvotelleet nuorille vuosittain yli $2miljoonan arvosta stipendejä Pohjois-Amerikkalaisiin arvostettuihin yksityiskouluihin.
