I enjoy my course greatly although it can be difficult and stressful at times. I find that with deadlines, I get my work done although I may lose a few hairs along the way. The teachers are are nice, and although some may be blunt in telling you that you are not good at something, it can motivate you to do better and prove them wrong. Me classmates are good and lessons are interactive. I haven't spoken much to my personal tutor so I don't know much about them but they seem nice. read more

East Asian Studies and Chinese, BA Hons FullTime
My first year of this course my Chinese got worse instead of better, and some of the other modules felt unorganised and rushed, so I basically paid 9 grand for a couple of zoom classes a week. The year abroad in Taiwan was really nice, but I only got half of it because of covid. At least my Chinese finally improved a lot after going abroad. Would recommend going to NSYSU Kaohsiung for year abroad. read more
