Description

Explore the complex landscape of international education with East Meets West: Chinese ESL Students in North American Higher Education. As the number of English-as-a-second-language (ESL) students has more than doubled since the 1980s, North American universities have seen significant growth in this demographic. This book focuses on Chinese ESL students from the People's Republic of China, who represent the single largest group of ESL students currently enrolled. Many of these students arrive with a K-12 education and undergraduate degrees completed in China. This text examines the academic challenges they face when transitioning to Western institutions. By looking at the difficulties caused by unfamiliarity with North American culture, this work provides a necessary perspective on the realities of studying in a competitive and globalizing world. It is an essential resource for understanding the specific needs and experiences of one of the largest growing student populations in higher education today.
