Hi Maylegoas - you are obviously writing essays - there are many places on the internet where you can find help - try googling "how to write an essay" for them. - ian-hill, Jul 25, 2011

Hi May,

I can see how hard you are working! I am going to try to help with this but I am not sure in all cases about your intent.

To sum up, foreign students that are studying in Great Britain may find the experience stressful, especially because this new country has different customs, culture, and weather.

OR

To sum up, students from Great Britain may find the first few weeks studying abroad to be stressful, especially if their new country has different customs, culture, and weather.

Perhaps seeing these two interpretations of your first sentence will help you understand how you should construct your sentence. I think you are talking about students who go to Great Britain to study, but only after I have read your second sentence.

In the end, an exchange student who goes to Great Britain to study should have some knowledge of these British characteristics and customs so that he can have a smooth path to being an exchange student there.

Como siempre, May, espero que esto sea una ayuda pequeña y que tengas exito con tus examenes.

It´s convenient to go there as an exchange student, and knowledge of a few British characteristics and customs can overcome problems and make a smooth path for new arrivals.

students people - students are always people, so "people" is not needed.

in the end - in this context this is similar to "To sum up", you don´t need it twice.

unless - this is to create one condition where the situation is different

I hope the following may be useful.

Remember there are many ways of saying what you want to say.

To sum up, students who are studying in Great Britain may find the first few weeks stressful; above all because a new country has different customs and a different culture as well as different weather. When all is said and done going as an exchange student with some knowledge of British characteristics and mannerisms may help overcome these problems and smooth the path of integration for new arrivals

Quite a lot of flaws. Sticking as close to your message as possible, I'd write something like this:

To sum up, for students the first few weeks in Great Britain may be stressful, above all if this new country has different customs, culture, and weather. In the end, it is convenient when going there as an exchange student to have knowledge of a few British characteristics and customs. This can help to overcome these problems and smoothen the path upon arriving.
