(一)基本資料

Brandon university which located at Manitoba , Canada (7字)

(二)課程學習

【照片說明：what it looks like】

My favorite course must be the Database taught by Professor Srivastava, G. The course will be taught from the shallower to the deeper course to make it easier for students to understand and absorb. The teaching environment in the classroom is also very good. The speech is very funny and often tells some jokes. Students from Asia will also take special care and will not discriminate. The professor said that he has been to Taiwan many times and likes Taiwan very much. I think this super bonus and a bunch of professors who only know that Taiwan is belong to China, this is pretty good thing that Make me have more motivated to go to his class, and also be impressed by the professor. Better. In the class exam and homework, you will compile from the most Basic programs to the deeper ones to solve the problems with what you have learned. These will become quite easy through to the taught courses. Overalls this is pretty good option for that I have learned and strongly recommended for the next year's schoolmates as a reference. Other professor like short and good old man (I am really sorry that I forgot his name, but he had come to JiaoXi before. If you told him that you are from Taiwan, he will told what he did like from airport to Taipei. Then Take the bus and the way to the mountain… tell you all the way, there is absolutely no awkward)his classes are also recommend. (253字)

(三)生活環境

【照片說明：so cold】

Cold is the most obvious thing that after you came here. Brandon is a small town but the life function is almost zero. If you want to go to the supermarket, I am sorry that there is no direct bus. You have to walk. The whole town will be completely covered by snow after October. The whole road is all cover in snow that you don’t even know which side is the driveway or the sidewalk. But it is desirable that the driver here are very friendly and will not rush you even you are too slow. There are a lot of the Chinese residents in Brandon that basically you are not too difficult to eat Chinese food. It is different from person to person that the food is good or not. At the same time, there is also a relatively cheap Asian food(sushi hot) to choose from, but these stores are only at outside and you have to walk at the lower -30 degrees to get it, if you do not have a car you will feel very desperate. In the school dormitory, if you are IIT student, congratulations, your course will not need to go outside. You can wear a short sleeve from the school dormitory to the classroom and enjoy a warm and happy school life. If you are not, you should always wear a coat outside. It is necessary to take off when walking indoors because the heating is super strong and very troublesome. There is a school canteen on campus, but the food is very ordinary and expensive. If you are not resident, you can go outside to eat. If you are not, you will have headache that how to spend the meal plan. All in all, this is a very nice town except the weather is really cold.(306字)

(四)自我成長

【照片說明：I call this tree, smoking tree (because there’s always lots people smoking down there)】

There are still many gaps between living abroad and Taiwan, whether in school or in life. The biggest problem in the study is that you will go to class with a group of people who don't understand Chinese. When you encounter problems that you don't understand, it is difficult to solve them in your own language except asking other. You can only face the difficulties by yourself. The biggest problem in life is that you have to communicate in a language that you are not very accustomed to. Whether you want to do it is really hard that let others understand what you want to express. Whether at the time of ordering or everywhere, you all need to try so hard. The part of Cultural shock experience is quiet cool.in here you can find that driver here are really care people who are walk in the side walk, that was really unfamiliar Things that compare to Taiwan .it is because driver in Taiwan are often like to drive fast and don’t care too much for pedestrians. But it’s not the same in Canada. It’s difficult to test the driver’s license here, so they are very careful when driving. (203字)

(五)大三出國建議

If you want to come here to study, I am strongly recommended to have a car. If there is no car here, you will be very painful in winter. You will need to walk on that low temperature road and you probably feel lazy to go out. And you also need to spend some money to buy enough cold-resistant winter clothing, I suggest you bring one in Taiwan, and buy it locally to be cold-resistant. It is because the clothes in Taiwan are not able to withstand minus 40 degrees. Again, the IELTS threshold is higher (I am reading EAP). This means that there are very few credits. If you are considering taking credits, please go to another school. Of course, if you have a good English level, you can skip this. The advantage here is that the environment is simpler and the tuition is cheaper. You can spend more budgets on your travels. Compared to the United States or other countries, the cost is really much cheaper. Don't worry that you can't make friends here, because there will be a lot of Chinese gathered in a group to get warm, then They can understand what you are talking about, and most people are very friendly, no worry in addition to sharing here, it is quite cheap to buy a car in North America. You can even bring a car back to Taiwan. If you have this demand, you can also consider Brandon University.(243字)
