Humanistic problems of studying in Britain

hello, as a person who has experienced it, I'm just talking about my experience.

I have been studying in the UK for 6 years, 2 years in matriculation and 3 years in university. . After studying, I worked and played for another year. . .

The preparatory course is in a small city, Boston, a small town in York. . . I'm sorry to say that I studied for two years in the preparatory course because I failed in the first year. . . Playing with things is tiring, hehe. .

I learned the language at the same time in the preparatory course. british foundation pays more attention to IELTS than A-LEVEL. However, if I start from high school, it is more appropriate to take the A-level exam. By the way, I am familiar with some subject languages in advance, which is conducive to the smooth study of the university.

After passing the matriculation course, I got an IELTS score of 7, and then I was admitted to BATH University. At that time, I remember that I was quite excited when I received the admission notice for the first time. As a result, when I looked closely, it was the matriculation notice. Holy cow, what a fool! ! I quickly called their foreign student manager to explain the situation, and they asked me about my report card in domestic high schools. . Yeah. . Not bad (wiping sweat, I was close to the head teacher in those days, and science was full of water. . ）。 . . I took it. .

then there will be three years of college. . . Basically, it is mixed. . Ha ha. .

this is my experience. . However, I have made a lot of friends. In Britain, the so-called class concept is not so deeply rooted now, but it still needs your efforts to integrate into that group. I have met many domestic schoolmates, who only stay in their own rooms or dormitories rented by domestic students' colleagues every day, and don't communicate with local people at all. Until the end, their language problems are a headache, their English is not good, and they are proficient in Northeast dialect and Cantonese. . = = || In fact, the vast majority of British people have no hatred for foreigners, and only some young people will have that kind of prank idea. Hehe, he will hide if he can, and he will be honest if he can't hide from an old punch.

English teaching is not very traditional. They are more practical. I still remember my computer language class at bath University. . . The first section is how to compile a set of ATM system. . . I remember that the first job of the team we set up was to help a local chocolate shop design a set of automatic management procedures to make it more convenient and information-based management. Basically, the current education methods in Europe are like this. .

In Britain, I don't know much about high school life, but I know a friend from Hong Kong. He went to high school first and then went to my school. According to him, at the beginning, he went to an aristocratic school with low freedom and unified management. He lived in a student dormitory and had no room for himself. . . I feel very depressed. Moreover, the study atmosphere there is very strange, and there is a psychological trouble of comparing with each other.

If you have good self-control, I recommend finding a school where you can arrange your own free time, or find your own accommodation, live in a local family or share an apartment with three or two friends. This will be much easier than that kind of closed accommodation, which will greatly increase your chances of getting in touch with the outside world and exercise yourself. . Actually, it's not difficult. I just don't live in a different school or city. I have to run more local intermediaries, just like searching for goods in the market. I can always find a good house to live in when I look around. By the way, I am familiar with the city. . ~~

I'm not afraid of your jokes. In fact, when I arrived in England in the first year, English was not my strong suit at all. . ABC is more like I know it, and it doesn't know my existence. . In the first year when I first arrived in England, I knew nothing. I didn't cook by myself, and I didn't go out to say anything. . . I'm so hungry. Boiling a boiled egg will burst the pot. . . I finally cooked pig food and forgot to clean it. After three days, the whole kitchen stinks. . .

Have you ever tried to bite the bullet and buy toilet paper and toothpaste from a shop assistant with an electronic dictionary in the supermarket? It's hard to meet a few foreign friends, but every time you chat with them, do you have to dig out the electronic dictionary from time to time and let them read it? In winter, the heating is not hot. Do you feel like gesticulating in front of the landlord for nearly an hour before letting the other party understand what I mean? Seriously. . . At that time, I almost took an ice cube and threw it at myself. . . Have you ever tried to meet a foreign friend who is interested in China culture, and then you excitedly used your pitiful vocabulary to describe to him the feeling that the result almost fucking distorted history? . . .

At that time, I was especially envious of those people who lived in school dormitories. . . I don't have to cook by myself, and I live with my classmates. I talk and laugh every day, and I don't have to consider these things that I have encountered. .

but after that, I don't think so. . After a period of time, I found that I gradually integrated into this society. Slowly, I no longer need to communicate with others with an electronic dictionary. I still remember the sudden sense of superiority when I gave that electronic dictionary to my junior. . . I don't need a dictionary to speak! ! ! ! When I go to the toilet and sit in the toilet, the novel I read is pure English! ! ! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ~ ~ ~! ! ! ! At the same time, with my own life, I gradually began to learn to cook and clean up the house. When friends came to my house, I cooked a good table and watched them all look like pigs. . Let's not mention how comfortable we are ~ ~ running towards a well-off society ~ ~ You guys only know the dregs of KFC cooking rice all day ~ ~! ! ! Ha ha ha ha ha! ! ! ! Uncle, I always cook instant noodles in a pot! ! ! ! !

Generally speaking, my five-year experience is to think of myself as one of them and talk to them as much as possible. . I can not only practice your English, but also develop your own network. I remember that in the last two years, sometimes I called a taxi, and the driver often told me that you spoke authentic American English. . . . (oh, my god. . . )

It's actually not as difficult as you think to get on well with local people. . . The easiest thing is your landlord. . Like me, I am related to my landlord. In the end, it is called an iron. . . In the penultimate year, I was introduced to a job as a Chinese translator for a local old Chinese doctor. . . Comfortable ~ ~ I remember when I returned to China, he personally drove me to the London airport and invited me to eat a big meal halfway (McDonald's. . . . )

I won't say much about the study, because everyone's study habits are different, so you must remember to preview, no matter what courses, it's easy to say in high school or preparatory course, but professors and comrades in universities are the ones who fly after class. . Be sure to do a good preview. If you don't understand, chew it yourself first. . Then E-mail, blow up his mailbox! !

don't be afraid to kowtow. . If you don't understand or understand the part, ask your partner, whether he is from China or a foreign devil, and kill the credits first! Generally, they will discuss with you and answer for you. . Also, universities generally have homecoming in China, and you can call them if you encounter anything. .

As to whether Britain can learn something, Canada can also learn it. . . I really don't know about that. . . It should be about the same. . . At least my English teacher is Canadian. . It seems that she told me that there is no difference between here and there. . . Hehe, don't believe me. . . I'm kidding you. . That aunt finally went back to China to have a baby, yeah. . The pizza she baked was really uncovered. . . .

it's not difficult to integrate into society, but whether you want to do it or not. . . I can see that you didn't have many opportunities to be independent before, so you will have such similar worries. Come on! After a long time, everything will adapt. . Just get used to it!

Actually, it doesn't matter where you go, as long as you can give yourself enough exercise to hone yourself, right? Of course, I have never been to Canada. . . Me. . . I still want to go to Japan. . . AV heaven! ! The Eden of otaku! ! ! Loli is flying all over the sky! ! ! ! !

I've been talking nonsense for a long time, but I haven't given you a clue. Hehe, I'll let you watch it for fun. . Finally, some things to pay attention to over there. . .

1. When you see a few young people smoking a cigarette, or simply copy a big pipe and keep away. . What about helping the children smoke DA/ hemp? .

2. Be sure to go to a nightclub in the evening. . It's okay that you are a man. If you are a little loli, don't blame your brother for not telling you ~

3. In Britain, all facilities except gas stations, nightclubs and restaurants are closed after 8 pm. . . Hurry up if you want to buy anything. . I remember forgetting to buy toilet paper once. . . As a result, I tore a page of my roommate's treasure. . Alalei comics. . . The child still has bloodshot eyes when he sees me. . . .

4. Don't go in places that look like game halls in small towns in Britain. . Those are slot machines. . . Your wallet will be flat when you go in. . .

5. Tipping is voluntary. If you don't want to give it, remember to ask for change, which can save lives at a critical moment. . I still remember how delicious the take-away food bought with half a catty of coins was ~ ~

6. If you meet a comrade who looks like a Chinese when you go shopping, don't be too kind. The child may be a Japanese. . . Or a Korean stick. .

7. The man riding a white horse is not necessarily a prince. He may also be a Tang priest. The man driving a Mercedes is not necessarily a rich man. He is more likely to be a taxi driver. .

8. If you want to eat hometown food, learn to cook it yourself. Never go to a Chinese restaurant opened by Hong Kong people. These children will sprinkle butter in Zhajiang Noodles. . .

9. It is also a real one. The living expenses are not enough. Try not to go to your parents and work for yourself. . That money is the most comfortable! It's not too difficult. I have a friend who works as a coolie in a factory and processes snacks. Two months later, he bought a set of stereo and an electric guitar at his own expense. . . PS: Playing black jobs, staying up late. . . The student passport stipulates that the working time in a week cannot exceed 2 hours. . . Although you can earn, it's not much. . . Where are you asking? Blue road and KFC. . .
