The best aspects of the university experience is learning many things with various people. There are variety of people in the university and of course, it brings me so many perspectives about studying topic. However, it is not only studying but it also brings new understandings of different types of human relationships, way of thinking, living, behaving and so on. It made me realized there are many people all over the world, and I could understand how society is constructed by various people. The university's style to not conduct same classes with small, and same class mates every time, broadens my perspective how to spend in the huge society, not the small society which was prepared by the school like in from elementary to high school. This learning is really good practice for me to work in the society in the future, such as how to communicate and study or do the same project with people who is just acquaintance, not friends. It sometimes brings me problem with the person who has really different way of thinking, but I think it is also really good practice to keep relationship with people who their personality does not match to me. Since it is really important to understand every difference of people and countries in my major, that experience also helped me to learn not society around me, but also led me to understand large society. Next, the worst aspects of my university experience was the trouble and its effects on me while I'm learning how to spend time with various people. I recently had trouble with my flatmates and I finally decided to change my accommodation. Before having trouble I already accepted there will be many troubles with many people, however, this trouble made me really stressed. I was prepared to have difficult relationships and conversation with others but it made me more stressed than I imagined While I really want to study for my assignment, this unprecedented trouble for me led me to change my accommodation and lost my time to study in the University. I have dreamed to study in the UK for a long time, and I studied really hard in my home country and finally came here. Therefore, I was really shocked that my precious time in this university was lost by trouble. Also, the new accommodation is much more expensive than the previous one and it was not easy to made decision as my family is not rich and our economic situation is not so affordable. Of course, the money problem in addition to the trouble with my flatmates made me impacted negatively. I feel I have to accept the reality that I couldn't fix our relationship with my flatmate because there are various people and there are many situations that people won't be able to understand each other and finish their relationships. However, I was more shocked that it lost my time to study in this precious and limited time for me. In this way, having trouble with other people and its effects on me was the worst experience I've ever had since I started to study in the University for about three months ago. However, my university listened to my situation as consultation and supported changing my accommodation swiftly, and I appreciate my university.

In my major, there are mainly two types of classes, lectures and seminars. In terms of lectures, I have reading list for each week, and that readings are prepared for getting basic knowledge for the lecture. Therefore, every student complete those readings before the lecture and having lectures for one or two hours every week. During the lecture, teachers add more information which we couldn't get from the readings and they accept asking questions every time. The lectures are recorded every time and it enables unattended students to check it, and attended student to check it again. As an international student, this system is really helpful since I can check missed part in the lectures. Also, when teachers don't feel well, they post previous recorded lectures from the lest year, so every lecture's quality are not affected by teachers condition and we don't have any opportunities to listen to low quality of lectures. On the Reading list, in addition to essential readings, there are suggested readings too, and those academic reading list enable students to find good academic sources when we write essays. In terms of seminars, it is conducted based on knowledges from reading list and lectures. The way of having seminars are really different depending on teachers, but every time they accept any opinions about seminar style. I understand teachers try to find the best style of seminar based on students personalities and favourite style of having conversations. When teachers are infected by COVID-19, but they still feel well, they tried to have online classed on zoom instead of uploading the previous recording lectures from the last year. Of course, they opens office hours and students can ask questions during that time. However, teachers try not to make students to loose opportunities to ask questions and discussions during the lectures and seminars, and they set online class. I appreciate their engagement for students. Normally, students have one or two hours lectures for each module every week, and one to three seminars every week. Completing reading everything on reading list before the lectures are not easy, but mostly, students have free time. We still have time to focus on ourselves like enjoying hobbies, pursuing our interest, and deepen understanding about our modules by studying more. In this way, my university's scheduling is comfortable for me based on my experience for about three months.

My university locates in falmer in Brighton. Brighton is really good city which has variety of people like LGBTQ+, and the city's atmosphere to accept many people brings my university various people too. There are many pubs and clubs, so students have many unique opportunities to communicate with their friends and many facilities in the city makes students life more enjoyable! Moreover, there are many shops not only clothing but also groceries, so I have many learnings about British Citizens lifestyle as an international student. Brighton is a bit pricy but since there are many shops, students have many options to spend life as university students, and it is not so hard to save money for me. There are many bus stops and train station, so I'm really comfortable about transportation. There is beach in the city and it's not so far from the University and the University has many trees and there are several animals. In this way, the nature environment of the University make me relax and comfortable to study every day. The city's access to London only takes for an hour and the access to other cities is also good. Since the Brighton has many options, it makes my university life comfortable and it doesn't make stressed about my life in different country.

The point I like the most about the accommodation is brings us opportunities to communicate and spend life together with really various people. Through this experience, I can learn difference of cuisine cultures, way of thinking and other things. For example, in my case, I feel really comfortable about my both previous and current accommodations. Every space, room, kitchen, bathroom, have enough space and they are not unreasonably really big. So, I understand why my University set each price for each accommodation. There are enough cabinets to put every stuff I have and the desk to work on my task is also big enough. The number of plugs are different depending on the accommodation, but I can charge everything without feeling uncomfortable. I like both accommodation. However, of course, some of my flatmates had different opinion about they want double bed rather than single bed, and they want bigger room. Even opinion about accommodations, it differ depending on people and it's really interesting to hear how my flatmates have different opinion about accommodation's condition and money and also their life in the accommodation. The relationship with flatmate is really different from the one with friends in the same major. We really have different dream and interests, and sharing many things with flatmates broadens my knowledge and perspectives about human diversity more. The point I like the least about the accommodation is I have to endure or share my complains about flatmates' behaviour sometimes. If flatmates doesn't clean up the dishes or other things, I have to talk about it seriously to my flatmates. It is really good practice to learn how to communicate with the person who is really different from me. However, I didn't prefer to have that opportunities since having that conversation is not easy, and it sometimes cause troubles. It's normal that everything has positive and negative things, and it is still really good experience. But, at least it made me stressed, so that is the point I least like about the accommodation. I didn't have any points I felt uncomfortable about facilities of accommodations.
