So many of my students have been in exactly this position. They deal with the challenges of moving to a new country, finding their way around new food, new currency and banking, new customs, and a new language environment. They deal with the heartbreak of needing to be away from family and cherished neighbourhood friends. On top of this, they need to balance work and study...and somehow find time to prepare for industry and language tests.
I have always been very keenly aware of the impact that these struggles have on students, and that's why I'm always there to help however I can. Your teacher should be your extended family, ensuring that you feel supported and understood. Teaching is, above all, a human pursuit.
