FIRST IMPRESSION & EDUCATIONAL CULTURE SHOCK
Culture is the total way of life of the people everyone has a culture, culture rules virtually every aspect of our lives, culture on the other hand is vital because it enables it's members to function with one another without the need to negotiate it's meaning at every moment. In where i come from Nigeria, it is far different from the way people live here in the United Kingdom.
In my country Nigeria their a lot of cultures, for example the most complex culture is languages, Nigeria has over 500 languages and over 250 ethnic groups which i doubt United kingdom has because their main language is English.
This is my first time schooling in England, although i come to England every Summer and sometimes during Easter so i am a bit use to their way of living, but the only difference is that i have never had a schooling experience this is just my first time and it is totally different from home, first of all it is very cold here unlike Nigeria that is always hot, I've noticed also that students smoke everywhere around school , i never saw that kind of thing in my schooling environment in Nigeria and i noticed their three clubs on campus that's awesome though but also a means of distraction .
The teaching system here is quite different because their a lot of materials, like the moodle helps a lot and also other extra classes like seminars and tutorials . this helps the ability of the students to become more educated in their studies, talking about culture shock the only thing i find different is the way people or rather couples make out in public places , maybe the food too it is a little bit different , anyways my main priority here is to be educated. Education is the key to success.
