First, when eating in the school cafeteria, you can actively participate in chatting at the same table, even among strangers. This is actually the obvious difference between Britain and China. In China, eating in the canteen is basically with three or two friends. In Britain, the situation is completely different. Students you don't know at dinner will naturally sit together and chat, and naturally make new friends. So if you are new here and eat in the canteen, you must not miss this excellent opportunity to make friends-you must sit in a crowded place when eating.

Secondly, sometimes you need to leave your friends in China and try to live with classmates from English-speaking countries to create an all-English atmosphere for yourself.

Third, it is a good choice to attend school parties as much as possible, make friends and learn English in a relaxed and happy atmosphere.

Fourth, it doesn't matter if you don't understand the lecture. Bring a recording pen, a "necessary artifact" for international students, and record and listen again and again at home. Many international students like me came all the way with recording pens.

Please abandon the learning ideas under the education system in China!

Many people regard language as the biggest obstacle after going abroad. In fact, as an experienced person, I may regard the maladjustment of academic and educational system as the biggest problem for international students.

Under the British education system, there are many teaching methods, such as discussion, speech, project, topic, thesis, experiment, etc. Each method has a perfect process and evaluation system.
