 Language and cultural barriers facing international students
 International students face a lot of academic concerns as well as cultural and language barriers, 
especially during their first few months. Academics, in particular, is bound to suffer unless students are 
comfortable with the language and cultural context. Foreign students who are not proficient in English 
are usually offered assistance through additional language courses, but often the structure of these 
lessons is not designed to deal with the academic requirements.
 In a survey of international students in the U.K., 50% experienced difficulty in meeting the required 
standard of English to follow their courses. Meanwhile, 43% said their overall education and grades 
were affected by language barriers and 30% of students had to switch from their main courses to English 
language courses. Cultural barriers also made a negative impact on students' abilities to develop 
academics and language. The same survey reported that 17% of students said cultural differences did 
not affect their education compared to 40% who said they were very much affected by the difference 
(Bukhari, 2015).
