ARRANGE AIRPORT TRANSPORT THROUGH INTERNATIONAL OFFICE, MAKE SURE U GET THE DOCUMENTS WITH YOU BEFORE DEPARTING

My level of English before going to Australia was fairly good, over the general Spanish level in any case. I did experience some difficulty at the very beginning, mostly because most my encounter with the English language had been purely academic or in short touristy trips at most. But I coped pretty well, I think, and after a couple of months living in English (and Australian English at that) I did improve a lot, mostly because, aside from the classes, I took a job at a cafe which really helped me a lot in overcoming my shyness and finding a way to make myself understood. Even now, two years after coming back from Australia, I have a very good command of English and do miss the language everyday.

At first, it feels like you are going back to kinder where everyone(even youngers) explains to you. However, you will be excited by you improving communication skills. Not to be afraid to speak was the crucial point for me.

I don't any specific night spot, i go out only when i feel that it doesn't have any impact on my studies, however when i go out i like go to different places with different places, so i can have different experiences.
