Suggestions or Recommendations about the Survey Topic

Culture shock is common problem for International Students these day. There are some elements that affect on international students such as habit, language, weather, transportation and clothes. The most problem that international students facing is habit and language in Australia because many things are different between Australia and their own country. International students may feel uncomfortable when experience an unfamiliar way to live new country. Thus, we give some recommendation for International Students to avoid culture shock.

First of all, you should find a lot of information about Australia because if you first time come and live in Australia, you don’t know about Australian culture. However, you can ask your friends who already come to Australia or if you have friend from Australia you can get a lot of information from them, you also can ask host family. Furthermore, you can try to learn and accept Australia culture because you should adapt new culture which is you are living. Finally, you should build communication with  Australian people or foreigner. It is lead to improve English skill and learn other culture.
