Reflective writing on the pre-sessional course and university study

Pre-sessional course has gives benefits a lot to prepare study to every subject for further study in british university. It gives you knowledge of academic writing and mind that help to make easier to follow the study in university. British university life is not as I expected, it has just more exciting, where there are a lot of people from every part of the world. There are many differences between the style learning and teaching in the UK and my country. Learning and teaching style in UK is make students think independently, not just following the teacher or lecturer. It would be very exciting going on to the further study in the university, which I'm planning to take master degree in law subject.

it's getting more serious...
