Trinity College review by Amina
HOUSING
Personal assessment
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? Accomodation in houses or apartements gives a better sense of 'real life' and local community life in the host country - chance to have flatmates and neighboors that have different professional, academic and cultural backgrdounds - and demands more maturity and independence from the student

Language difficulties
Language of instruction: English
Was learning English a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my English How much did you improve your English?
My level before: At ease in most situations My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang) Personal comments:
Learning or improving a language is something i find absolutely stimulating as i grew up myself with 3 languages (french, arabic and german). Living in Ireland, I even developped a stronger interest in languages and learned italian 'accidentally' while sharing my flat with italian people, and I an now planniung to start a course of Italian to reach a proficiancy level.
