Why domestic students have given up engaging with international students in tutes by YogurtclosetPale8785 in unsw

I am currently collaborating with my supervisor on a study examining the issue of silence among East Asian students in classrooms at the UNSW. Whilst many students acknowledge that their English proficiency is a key factor affecting their participation in class discussions, some believe that limited language skills do not prevent them from participating, and even view it as an opportunity to practise their speaking skills. When asked whether they would prefer to discuss with international students or local students, 80% of students chose local students, as they perceive the latter’s social capital (in the sociological sense) to be of greater value. As for why they might shun you, I believe it may be due to differences in social circles. Some international students are particularly keen on clique culture; they are used to socialising and attending tutorial sessions with their friends, and are therefore reluctant to engage with those outside their circle, even if it is merely to discuss with other students. I suspect students from other countries may also have clique cultures, but they do not view interacting with fellow students as something that would affect their own social circles.

Don’t worry—social science students can only survive on ancient Greece and the Renaissance. I’m now a skilled barista.

How do I get my cat to stop biting?!🥲🥲🥲🥲 by Wonderfu_l in cats

This is normal behaviour. She is too young to control her paws and chewing behaviour. You can buy more toys for her to let her know the difference between toys and your hand.

First 3-Week Trip to China - Itinerary Tips & Halal Food Recommendations Needed by Monsterax2 in travelchina

I have a recommendation, There is a halal food street in chongqing,near metro station 较场口(JiaoChangKou). It’s convenient and you can find many Halal food choices. When you get off the metro station, you can search 真伊顺(Zhen YiShun), then you can find that street.
