「變更好的最好辦法」
離開自己的舒適圈是挑戰自己,讓自己變更好的最好辦法!
自己一個人到異地生活,首先要了解當地的文化,像是絕對不可以插隊,開車靠左…等等,再來就是要習慣不同的教學方法,我覺得在英國他們很重視團隊合作,所以所有的報告都是團體報告,在這當中你必須學習如何和組員們溝通,使你們最後的成品呈現最好的一面。
還有最重要的是時間管理,其實這一年在USIC讀書,發現他們的課程並不像在高中一樣那麼的緊湊,但是會有許多論文和報告,所以必須要安排好所有事情,並且按部就班的完成,千萬不要等到要交作業的前一兩天才開始做,有時間就多看論文和報告需要的文章和資料,其他的就是好好享受留學生活啦!
The best way to make you better is to leave your comfort zone!
The first thing you have to know is their culture when you are going to other places by yourself where you are not familiar with. For example, you must queue and never cut the line;drive cars on the left side, etc. What’s more, you have to adjust different teaching methods.
During this year in the UK, I learned that team work plays an important role in their culture. Students are required to work as a team in most projects, and during the process you have to know how to communicate with your team members in order to make the best of it.
Additionally, time management is considered to be equally crucial. At USIC they have relatively less classes than those of high school. However, we were given plenty of essays and projects at the same time. Consequently, it is necessary to prioritize them all, use time wisely, and follow the schedule step by step. Keep in mind not to start off the assessments when the deadlines are on the corner. The last thing is to enjoy your life abroad!
