1.0 Executive Summary

Studying and living in the UK is the desire for so many students as it has an absolute great standard of education. It is the desire of everyone who wants to acquire a first degree, masters or doctorate to gain an opportunity to study in any of the pronounced higher institution in the UK.
Coming to the UK to a study and adapting entirely to a new culture, environment and life style is a reality of challenge to every foreigner. Even the different weather climate can affect one’s health, and also adopting to a new custom may manipulate our mind and sense of reasoning. When we wake up every morning, it is always a new day to struggle and survival in a new land or country we’ve never been before. It is always easier in a place where you know people and have knowledge how to survive. But here we are in a strange country having no knowledge of the environment or people living around us hoping to survive as the day goes by.

In the UK, a teacher in the university or school has a high role expectation from his students. The teacher expects his or her students to improve

    I have taken advantage of my school’s unique location - not only in London, but as an International school - to connect with and learn about people and cultures I may never have encountered. University has always been a place to develop and share different ideas, but by going halfway across the world I have not only been introduced to a range of different perspectives, I have also been able to develop my own more completely. In addition, working in London has introduced me to such a variety of people I would not have met had I gone to school in a different location. Overall, attending a university in a different country, and in such a popular city, has allowed me to experience a more complete sense of diversity, and to develop a more “global” world…

    Teachers play a pivotal role in shaping the behaviour and educational success of students and as such they carry a huge responsibility in the classroom. Everything the teacher says or do has a great impact on students’ lives as students depend on the teacher for guidance, for determining acceptable and social behaviour in the classroom and more importantly their learning and academic success. In addition, the role played by the teacher in fostering students learning causes them to exhibit certain attitudes which could have a long lasting negative or positive influence on students. Based on research it was surmised that high teacher expectation mean that the teacher believe that the student is a high-achiever and the dynamics surrounding the learning of that particular student or groups of students were underpinned by favourable conditions and it impacts learning in a positive way. On the other hand, where teachers hold low expectations of their students mean that they believe that the student is a low-achiever and the approach to learning is impacted negatively. Teachers form expectations for student performance and tend to treat students differently depending on these expectations.…
