I think the biggest challenge for me was actually the interviews, because prior to the help Sino Elite had given me, I was unable to understand the main focus points of a question that an interviewer may have asked.

 

After their help, I understood how to include details, how to draw the listener in, but not bore them with too many details.

 

I also did not know how to communicate my achievements without seeming like I was bragging, but Sino taught me to use examples in my life to communicate these achievements in a more subtle way.

 

I would also especially like to thank my teacher, as she was there for me, whether it was application related issues, or any other issues, she always responded very fast and provided me with good advice.

 

For future students, I would suggest that you try and complete all parts of the application as soon as you can. For me, I left many of my essays until the end, and by that time, when I could have been swimming and having fun in Phuket, I had to write many essays because I didn’t complete them earlier.

 

For the interviews, I would recommend that you do not write down your answers in full. Writing bullet points, or even just familiarizing yourself with the array of questions and having a general idea of what you plan on answering will be sufficient.

 

Moreover, this will make the conversation between you and your interviewer a lot more natural, as it allows for the development of an answer according to the situation.

 

In addition, the interviews are actually very fun, and although you may feel apprehensive towards them at first, as i did, you will find them fun as soon as you have your first school tour- the faculty at the school makes the situation very relaxed, and it will feel like you are having a natural and fun conversation. Good luck!
