Personal comments
Of course being in England is the best way to improve your English... And I guess my oral English is better now than it was before. As for the written English, I reckon it was allright -though not perfect- before coming to Wolverhampton.

Personal comments
It's a typical campus -noise, not too much space, but also a good way to make great friends and to learn the language properly.

At first it was difficult for me to understand everything because of the close accent of Wolverhampton native speakers, but at the end of the year I realized that my English had become very good.

Course recommendations
The English educational system is quite different to the one back in Austria, it is much more specialised, but I would definitely chose Marketing (which is also my special field of studies here in Austria) as it covers almost everything, from Global Marketing to strategies for small and medium enterprises in a local market.

Personal comments
I have only had a limited insight into academic life, i would have really enjoyed staying in Wolverhampton for at least another semester, as the courses I chose were really interesting and I definitely would have liked to get to know more about how Marketing courses in England differ from those at my home university-as far as I am concerned, I was completely satisfied with the opportunities given to students.
