I find English learning at UIC to be beneficial. UIC has an all-English teaching environment. Improving your English level will help you better understand what the teacher says in class and study efficiently. For instance, when I was a freshman, my spoken English was not good, so it was very difficult to communicate with teachers and I even couldn't speak English confidently. However, attending one-to-one speaking tutorial every week boosts my confidence and my oral English has been greatly improved. Moreover, learning a foreign language can broaden our horizons and enables us to understand the cultures of different countries, such as Britain, America, Australia, etc. This is conducive for students who want to study abroad in the future.

I personally benefited the most from the English courses related to academic work, which were ‘Project presentation’ (PP) and ‘Academic Reading and Writing’ (ARW). I remember for my final year project, I used many techniques taught in these two courses. For example, I learnt from the ‘ARW’ course ways to find useful and reliable references for academic writing, and learned from the ‘PP’ course about how to cite references in the right format. I am working in academia right now, and I know how important a reference list is for a good research paper because it is proof that the author is a serious scientist. When I was a first-year master’s student, many peers went to take a course named Academic Writing, which I audited for one session and realized the content had already been covered during my undergraduate study. I really appreciate these English courses I took in UIC, which helped me a lot in the past, and will continue to benefit me in the future.
