<About classes>
1) Class selection
I basically chose what I wanted to learn.In addition, they were selected according to the research theme.However, when I came to America, I found that the classes I had registered for at the time of registration had not been registered for some reason.He took classes that interested him, such as phonetics and American history and culture.
XNUMX) Class content
Everything was difficult and there were many things I didn't understand, but I managed to persevere and was able to get credits.When I didn't understand something, I went to ask the teacher, and there was a teacher who answered questions for more than an hour in the laboratory.
3) Do American universities have many assignments?
really a lot.It's basically a life where I'm doing problems all the time.
4) Speaking during class
Many students speak actively.Speak up even if the teacher doesn't ask questions.Some students speak without raising their hand.Even if there are students who raise their hands, many students are actively speaking out to the extent that the teacher sometimes ignores them.
