How to break through the difficulties on the way to study abroad in the UK

1. Enhance self-directed learning ability

Studying in the UK, you need to meet certain requirements for self-study. Self-directed learning is called "independent" in English

learning", which includes not being confined to textbooks, teachers and syllabuses, but arranging their own learning plans, materials** and the angle and breadth of knowledge they use. In Western universities, teachers do not discipline students with painstaking words, tutor and demand them meticulously, as Chinese teachers do, but encourage students to arrange their own learning process and think independently. It is true that UK education is somewhat different from Chinese education, and this self-directed learning ability can be particularly difficult for younger students.

But no matter what, it is better to develop a habit of self-directed learning from an early age.

2. High language skills are required

IELTS, although UK universities require IELTS at the undergraduate and master's levels from 7. But in fact, it is often Chinese students who score more than 7 points to learn more easily, because a score of 7 or more indicates that they can communicate fluently in language. If you are not able to communicate fluently in language, and you are not able to actually use the language, you will go through a long and painful process of adaptation after going abroad.

3. Strong thinking and communication skills

We know that the teaching method in the Western classroom is mainly guided, the teacher mainly provides a general direction and topic, and then encourages students to think critically in class, analyze problems from multiple perspectives, and actively participate in discussions and presentations, share their opinions, learn from each other, and mark each other. The communication skills, logical analysis skills, and teamwork skills cultivated in this process will be of great help to future work. But this is also a big challenge for Chinese students who have just gone abroad, because the traditional Chinese teaching has made Chinese children develop the habit of taking notes quietly in class, do not like to take the initiative to speak, and lack the skills of discussion and presentation.

4. High requirements for professional vocabulary

If you choose a particular major, then there are some terms and vocabulary about the major that you must be aware of. Therefore, studying abroad is not just about the vocabulary of everyday English communication. Vocabulary is very useful to help students communicate information and build trust on international platforms with precision in their future careers.

However, these words are so complex that if you don't take the initiative to read and reinforce them after going abroad, you will be easily dizzy.

It is recommended to find an agent to study in the UK.

1. Submit application materials.

2.Plan your application.

DIY is a concept that originated in the West in the 60s of the 20th century, with the surge of study abroad in the UK, the information of studying in the UK is more open, and more and more students choose DIY to study in the UK and start their new life path. Although it is true that there are students who succeed in DIY, there are still many risks in applying to study abroad on their own. Let's talk about the risks of DIY

1. The application is delayed due to incomplete information.

On the one hand, many of the information is relatively old, and on the other hand, there will be a lot of omissions in the content, which not only makes the preparation for studying abroad cumbersome and passive, but also may cause delays in the application for studying abroad.

2. Unable to accurately screen for self-positioning.

First of all, it is necessary to do an accurate positioning of one's own conditions, and it is difficult for DIY students to make accurate positioning for themselves due to their lack of experience. Moreover, among the more than 100 colleges and universities in the UK, you must have a strong screening ability to find a school or even a major that suits you, and students and parents without these experiences will not only waste a lot of time, but also may miss many suitable good colleges and universities after screening.

3. The preparation of application materials is not correct and complete, thereby reducing the success rate of the application.

The preparation of application materials is very important for the application for studying abroad, in addition to the necessary application materials, some materials to prove one's ability or intention to study abroad have a considerable impact on the success or failure of the application.

4. No experience in studying abroad may waste some energy and financial resources.

The preparation for studying in the UK is a cumbersome process, from the beginning of the study abroad plan, you need to start preparing for the language test, as well as searching for school information, determining the college, determining the major, starting to mail application materials, starting from the college contact, etc., but most students and parents have little understanding of these aspects, so there may be no planning at all in the preparation of exams, materials including school applications, which is a waste of time and money, and a delay in the study abroad trip of the year.

5. The characteristics and advantages of the personal statement cannot be expressed in place, or they cannot express themselves better because of their limited English proficiency.

The personal statement in the essay is another hot spot that British universities pay attention to when reviewing students, and they also need to understand the concerns of the colleges and universities they are applying for, so as to make a more targeted personal statement, but many DIY applicants for studying in the UK do not have these experiences, and take it for granted that they make a personal statement, and the final result is that they are rejected, and they do not know the reason for the rejection. In addition, essay writing is also very important for English proficiency requirements, that is, to apply for admission without language, you still need an English essay, which is difficult for students who have been receiving domestic education.

To be honest, if the landlord's conditions meet the requirements of the school, it will not be too difficult to apply by yourself. But "DAO Study Abroad" admission is the prerequisite version, and the visa is the key! The processing of the visa is more complicated, involving the laws of a country, there are a lot of materials to prepare, or it is better to ask a professional agency to handle it, after all, you have rich experience and you are more worry-free.

In the unlikely event that you are denied a visa, the responsible company will also compensate you for the refusal. If you go to prepare the materials by hearsay, in case you are denied a visa, who will compensate you?

The success or failure of the first visa is very important, if it is rejected, it is not easy to apply again, remind the landlord to be cautious when taking the first step!

It's not easy, it's hard to do. Degree. Dot. Close. Boil. Endure. Give birth. May. Title. In order to. In. Sleepy. Fear. Urgent.

Material preparation is the most important one, but not the most important one.
