Description

Explore the academic landscape of North American higher education through the lens of the growing ESL student population. As the number of English-as-a-second-language learners has more than doubled since the 1980s, Chinese students from the People's Republic of China have emerged as the single largest group in this category. This book examines the specific experiences of Chinese ESL students who have completed their K-12 and undergraduate education in China. It addresses the academic challenges these students face when transitioning to North American universities, particularly regarding their unfamiliarity with local culture. This text provides essential research for understanding the complexities of education in a competitive and globalizing world.
