The solutions of the challenges

Because we are the international students, language is the most important thing that we need to improve firstly. We should try the best to use time in communication with US students to make our oral language more fluent. When we have free time, we can read more newspapers and watch the TV programs to know more about the newest news happened around. And some of the programs can help you be used to the life here. You can find some popular topics like sports or music to start your interview so you can make the interview more relaxed and under your control
