Jessica Zheng

Jessica is from China, and is studying in the Academic English program at USC.

I’m enjoying it because the teacher is nice and the classmates are very nice.

When I first came to Australia, I was very shy and did not want to talk to anyone and now I talk to people. It’s also helped my reading, but most important is that it makes me feel comfortable speaking in English.

With writing, I have a lot of grammar mistakes, but now I have been correcting mistakes and getting better. It’s getting used to the different structure of English to Chinese. I just practice more.

I want to study here at USC in the future when I finish the EAP course. I’m still thinking about what I’ll do in the future, but I will come back to USC because it’s very good. It’s more helpful for the student studying here.

My favourite thing in the English Language program is the project work – giving each other ideas. It’s effective working with each other.

The teachers here are very nice and helpful. If I ever ask a question after class, they will answer. If I ask a second time, they never say, “I have told you”. They are very patient.
