Personal comments
The overall language and communication experience at the University is satisfactory. The class was reasonally misxed and provided a good language environment, with one third native speakers and two third international students. The language center was also supportive, with a range of free English courses running through the year. In addition, there was a great deal of interactions between the university and local communities.
