After completing a survival exercise groups, especially our newly arrived students, were asked to consider what they needed in place not simply to survive but to thrive during their time here. Here's a list of thoughts from the students ...
- Learn to cook
- Buy warm clothes, an umbrella and get accommodation with good heating
- Learn good time management
- Develop friendships
- Move outside your own language group and culture
- Get involved in some sport activity or find other ways to relax
- Respect each other
- Be open-minded and flexible
- Don't be shy
- Ask questions
- Participate everywhere, especially at TABLEtalk
- Seek help before you hit a crisis
- Laugh lots!
- Don't take yourself too seriously
- Escape from Medway occasionally
