    can you please make a video about accommodation, the halls and the campus ?? I like fallowfield but I've also heard people party too much there

      @Celinassousa  4 года назад

      I definitely want to do that! I had planned that video a while ago but with the coronavirus everything changed. I will do my best to deliver that content. Fallowfield is mostly British students, they do party a lot but depends on which hall you are in. Ashburne, Sheavyn or Richmond I know are quite halls

    Omg this video was bomb! I am an EU student too and at Leeds Uni now, but everything you said is so true! I feel like whenever I come across a video titled „spilling the tea about my uni” it’s usually praising the uni but here you mentioned all the important points. I also feel like (sorry if someone disagrees) but education in EU at high school might be on a higher level than the UK and so we typically have more expectations which sometimes aren’t met. Also we pay 9k, UK students are used to this fact but most unis in the EU are a lot cheaper that’s why we want a top class experience

      Hello! I had the exact same concern before coming and the answer is no! It’s so fine. Everyone has a different accent but I understand 99% of what they say. Certain books I have to read are more complicated to read, especially if they are old English, but not a problem that a dictionary can’t solve! You get used to it and you develop even more your vocabulary. If you are still struggling, the university offers support to international students that struggle with the university level of English 😌

      Hi!! I joined Manchester Entrepreneurs, which I recommend 100%. I joined MULS, the new committee for next years IS AMAZING. MULS is the law society but it’s non only for law students! Anyone can join. You learn so much about the business world as well. Those are the societies that I am active in. I also recommend the debate society, I have heard is really good. Then you have societies for each nationality which provides you with an amazing support group that reminds you of home. The sports community is also amazing if you are into sports
