    I had a very similar experience as you while studying in a predominantly Chinese university, teacher holds the ultimate authority and one is expected to mostly agree. Looking retrospectively, it does provide a good glimpse into Asian style of management and it's helpful to be aware of the difference from Western style of doing things. The knowledge is handy for the student in the long run, so still worth. Best combination is to have some experience from both schools of thought as the world evolves!

    I graduated from a university in US and, from your video, I don't see how the Chinese university are different. Maybe you are expecting university in China to lecture in English, just like you are expecting a US university to lecture in Chinese?
    I accept that your culture is more “Western”. In US, there are lively parties most weekends. In decades to come, Chinese may loosen up and adopt a more “Western” attitude but as of now, they are more pragmatic and more goal-driven. They are not prone to speak their mind. That is cultural. Chinese people all over the world seem to have that - it is not the fault of the university is it? I think Japanese are like that too.
    As of learning skills, I don’t think my university in US did that successfully at all. What skills did I learn? Not much, maybe none. All I can say is that the experience of the university life itself is the “skill”. As the years go by, you will find the same sort of “skill” - the experience - that I acquired to be the most important thing you have learned.

    If study in China universities pay you well after graduation, definitely foreigners will queue up for enrolment.
    Other than that, students are able to learn the ancient wisdom from cultural exchange.

    Thanks for your unbiased view of your educational experience in China. I'm surprised to learn that so many scholarships are offered to international students. Is there a minimum Chinese language requirement from international students studying in universities (not necessarily the top) in China? Do you find some foreign students in your school/classes still struggling with their Chinese language?

    I got a fully funded scholarship from the Chinese government for a PhD program at HUST starting September this year, and am struggling to accept or not; because I have a lovely family with 3 kids and a good paying job here in Nigeria. Thinking is all these are worth sacrificing for a PhD program. Thanks for the enlightenment

      @@sonmetal6000why do you think it’s a great opportunity though? I want to study in China but also being in that field I already have a job and it pays well, so if I studied in China it’d really be irrelevant to me as a developer, it won’t help my career more than studying locally. I’m curious on why do you think it’s a great opportunity to do your masters in CS there?

    p/s i just found your channel while looking some tips for hsk 5,
    great tips on listening part, looking forward for reading part.(if you are interested to do so)
    Do you take 1 year + MTSCOL or you did MTSCOL after HSK6,
    Are you under Hanban or Goverment scholarship
    Do you think HSK 5 is good for MTSCOL (i am a bit scared since people the entry requirement is low while the actual subject itself is much harder than HSK6)
    FYI, i am now planning to take HSK5 after one and half year study and planning to do one year + MTSCOL
    by the way, thank you for all the tips that you shared in your videos

      @@OutmazeChinese what I'm really worried about is their mode of instruction. I just can't imagine myself attending classes that are instructed in Chinese. It would be really challenging to every international student. I'm afraid I would fail because of that. Though we have chinese language training here because we are told to take the HSK test and once we get HSK4, then we will be qualified to take the scholarship program. But, I guess, it won't be enough to really understand the language and speak fluently. It would be much more hard once I write my research😭😭😅.
