2. International students at Beijing International Study University
A student from South Korea said: “Beijing International Studies University has a good learning environment and atmosphere, which provides students with the opportunity to learn languages. The diverse associations are also quite attractive to me. I have registered for a street dance class. Although it was hard, I could learn interesting dances and make many friends, so I think it was very interesting. The first impression that BFSU gave me was that there were many international students, and you can find international students almost everywhere. Secondly, there is a beautiful campus environment, especially the library and coffee shop, which are beautiful with a quiet and comfortable environment. In the evening, the small pond is also very beautiful, and people often play guitar around it.”
“The language barrier is a very big problem in China. Living in a foreign country alone will meet all types of difficulties. However, if you are strong and hardworking enough to break through cultural barriers bravely, you will gain a lot! I gained friendship and joy at Beijing International Study University, I learned a lot and I saw my potential. These are the most valuable treasures I have gained besides learning Chinese!”
