I am Filipino student in Malaysia, When I came to Malaysia It was very difficult for me to understand Malaysian accent when they spoke in English, but after few months I got used to their accent. I was very new for the things lecturers were teaching specially in English, I was struggling in all those subjects and therefore I had to repeat them. I asked one of my classmates to help me to teach in English and other subjects, and he agreed to teach me and I gave him RM5 per hour to teach me. After learning from him I started to get good grades in all of my subjects,  I love studying in a group, group studies are the best way to learn if you are struggling with your studies, Malaysians are very friendly and if you ask them kindly and join their study group they will help you with your studies. Currently I'm studying foundation studies.
Malaysia have given a lot to me, I have gained a lot of experience and a lot of friends. I have visited most of the nice touristic locations in Malaysia, touristic places in Malaysia are very beautiful and affordable I loved traveling in Malaysia during my semester breaks. I was having great time while I was studying and enjoying my studies at the same time.
My recommendation for International students is give extra effort in their foundation because the effort you put in will help you during your Bachelor Degree. Study in a group and try to teach and share what you have learned with your friends so that you can learn better while you teach. International students should make a lot of friends because having a lot of friends will help you to build your networking which will help you late in life and friends will help you during your studies.
