Because you're flying in American airspace, it's worth noting differences between local American procedures and standard ICAO procedures. Then finding out differences between ICAO and Belgium, for example.
Agreed, BUT, don't spend any time on this just yet. Simply aviate, navigate and communicate the way your instructor tells you to. When you've eventually got the poo brown wallet with your shiny new PPL back from the CAA at Gatwick, only then spend time with a Belgian instructor to find out the differences.

There's a number of differences that are so subtle that you will only appreciate them once you've got the experience that comes with obtaining a PPL.
