(一)基本資料

I study abroad in Emirates Academy of Hospitality Management for 3 months studying and 6 months intern. I went to UAE-Dubai from 2018 Sep 6th to 2019 July 1st. I was taking 4 courses, like front office operation, food and beverage, housekeeping, and English rhetoric. My internship is in the most popular hotel in the world, Burj Al Arab, where I'm being as a bartender and server in Junsui restaurant. (65字)

I prefer Food and Beverage course when studying in Emirates Academy, because the teacher there is quite knowledge and passion, but she is the most serious teacher when taking the course. I had so many exam and so many homework from her, but all of these were very useful and helpful. Therefore, I spent lots of times on studying the text book and class note in order to preparing the exam. In addition, the information in F&B I surfed just because of the homework and report. The class was really tough, but it did learned knowledge in this course. When the first time taking the course, I really wanted to give up and drop off the course. However, consider to the credit I need and I don't want to be a coward only staying in the back, so I decided to overcome any kinds of challenges. I did preview and also review everytime, sometimes it wasn't ideal which made me upset, but when I got the good grade, I was really exciting. Fortunately, I was passing the course. At this moment, I was learning about not only the knowledge in class, but the perseverance and responsibility. This was the first step I consider I was growing up in study abroad program. To be mentioned about the course, first, which introduced what is food and beverage, like how to manage the restaurant, and how to be a special one that the guests want to go - depends on the type of restaurant and the goal you want to make etc. Second, it would also teach us each kinds of restaurant you want to make, like casual dining, and fine dining. Third, the professor would invite many successful restaurant manager to give a speech, telling us the story what it liked and the secret of success in his or her career. Last but not least, there were lots of homework and exams you needed to do, which easily made you irritated, but the only things you needed to know, it was really helpful. Simplicity speaking, this course is filled with challenges, if you overcome everything, you'll be more strong in every kinds of toughness. (362字)

(三)生活環境

Emirates Academy is not a large place but it is quite good on everything. They have swimming pool, fitness gym, Library, basketball court and some restaurants. I have a single room, which is not large but it is enough to offer anything I want, like bathroom and own kitchen. The famous location near the Emirates Academy are Burj Al Arab, Madinat Jumeirah, Jumeirah Beach hotel, Wild Wadi and Mall of the Emirates. the weather here is so hot. In summer, it can come to 45-50C. In winter, it can become 30C. The first day I came here, it was a late night. I was afraid of taking the taxi to the wrong place at that time. The next day I went to Mall of the Emirates eating in food court. The price of food was shocked me, it was really expensive, even if a hamburger cost above 200TWD. It meant if I bought each combo with fried and drinks, which cost over 300TWD. The mall is very big, especially Dubai Mall. You can go shopping for all day long. The living condition is good as well, I can cook by myself and even go pool restaurant. Transportation here is convenient. We can choose Uber or Taxi. The price is not too expensive. However, the only things you need to remember is the serious traffic jam in the evening. Simplicity speaking, Dubai is a good place on studying and shopping. If you want to take an experience of Arabic culture, come to Dubai is your best choice. (257字)

(四)自我成長

First, we need to respect other culture, I mean like something different between country to country, we can not put our own view into others, even of discrimination. It was my first time to go abroad, I was fortunately to have the opportunity, though it was difficult to listen English in class and make my own English note as well. To me, the most challenging part was writing the answers of the exam. I was always thinking about Chinese, and then translated into English. These habit made me so much trouble, which gave me a really bad score. As I mentioned above, the second difficult thing was studying. It was different between culture to culture, and also country to country. Like the regulation in Taiwan, they always tested multiple choice, and having limited thinking on everything. However, in foreign country, they gave us a space to have critical thinking on everything, and also testing. The Third challenging thing was during the intern, working in a hard environment. I also mentioned about it, like a team leader always shouted at me, even if I did the right things. My hearing of right ear is not good, because of the sick when I was 18 years old. I remembered I was doing my duty, he was shouting like what the fuck are you doing here, and he told me to support other section. After the break, he was shouting again like why you put the wrong set-up in your section. I felt really mad, because he told me to support other section, and doing what he said. (264字)

(五)大三出國建議

1. When I had interview with Burj, they said I wanted the job as “only work in the bar”. They promised me. However, the real situation is I stay in the floor, especially back of the house for a long time. 2. Our started date was procrastinated. The reason from Burj was the new government policy. This was the first excuse. The second one was they had a change from their executive team. The third excuse one was they had so many intern in Burj they could not handle. 3. I told HR what one of the team leader did for me, then they told to manager. Thus, Team leader knew I said something, and put me in more difficult trouble. 4. Burj didn’t give us an exact time,like started date and end date etc. we can not book the airline, and my family can not plan anything when I back to Taiwan. 5. They always change the word. Not only HR, but our manager. I mean they always promise something but never realize the word. Emirates Academy is a good place for studying, because the professors are all professional. However, when coming to intern, you need to take it seriously. A good company can learn so many things and experiences. In contrast, the bad company will use intern doing every things that are beneficial for them. Moreover, the worst thing is you will waste your time and does not learn anything. Like me, I chose the famous brand-Burj, it was not a good environment for being as a intern. If I have another chance to choose, I will definitely choose other hotel like Jumeirah Beach hotel, which was better for intern to cultivate their skill.(283字)
