How I deal with a difficult situation
In recent years, more and more students have opportunities to study aboard. At the same time, there is a common language problem among a lot of people. I also have this kind of issue in the first couple of months, there are some suggestions about how I deal with this difficult situation. Hope can help you a little bit.
First of all, join school activities as much as you can. As a international student, the first and most important thing you need to figure out is learning language. We all know that language is a kind of subject that the more you practice, the better you will be. Walking in the campus, everyone can be your teacher. But how to make friends with them? Join school activities. Every school have a lot of activities groups in different catalogs for enrich students free time. By the time you go to the activity, prepare what you may talking about and how to leave people a good impression. Since you got friends, you can hang out with them or even text message in English. You will surprise yourself the speed your language enhanced.
Second, use media resource. One thing do not forget is, you are in the US now! So go ahead to use all the media resource you can get. For example, Every morning after you wake up, turn on the radio so that you can listening some news while preparing food. During the time driving, listen a music channel such as "i heart radio", relax yourself and learn different entertainment culture. There are also many other ways to use free media resource. Watching basketball games on TV, movies or even carton. You will always find words which you do not understand. It's a good way to find links between study and entertainment.
The last one is keep study yourself. Never think that you can learn language well only from activities and media. Take time review the knowledge you learned is also significant. What's more? Another resource people can use is library. Borrow book from your school library. Accumulate skills how people write essays in this country, write down new vocabularies and turn it to yours. Then practice using it with English-language people. Practice makes perfect.
Therefore, join activities, use media resource and keep review and reading are how I deal with a difficult language situation. That's not all you can do, but if you have no idea about the problem, at least you can try it. Maybe on the process you trying, you can find your own way which are better than mine.
