Win Yadana Htay.

Business and Management – BA (Hons)

My name is Win Yadana Htay. I am attending the final year of bachelor of business management at British University College (BUC). I joined this British University College after HND. Honestly speaking, I inquired a lot of Universities at local and Thailand for my bachelor degree after finishing my Higher National Diploma. It took about for a year and I felt like it was lost my way. In April 2020, I found this British university college on Facebook page. The reason I chose BUC is because I really like their Bachelor degree program. British University College affiliated the University of Sunderland, which has an overall ranking of 3 in UK. So, it motivates me to join the BUC.
When I started the Bachelor class, the first-wave of COVID19 pandemic happened in Myanmar so I have more experience with the online teaching system in my student life. On the first day, I attended the student orientation conducted by the University of Sunderland. They shared their teaching format, assignment submitting procedures and other required registration related to the student ID that I need to use the library and assignment submission in University of Sunderland. During this COVID-19 pandemic condition, British University College supports to be the convenient interacting.When I started online learning, there were some technical errors and unfamiliarity in using zoom application. But BUC solved these errors and problems. Moreover, professors who teaching in BUC are officially approved by University of Sunderland have extensive experiences in practice.
During my learning period in BUC, I made new friends and gain knowledge by participating the classroom discussion and teamwork activities. It motivates me to be confident in communication skill. Moreover, another great benefit in BUC is that if students wish to attend the graduation of University of Sunderland, we can attend it.
In addition, BUC has connections with multinational universities and there are training programs for students in HND program by going field trip to foreign countries. It provides study opportunities at major multinational companies abroad in the MBA program. British University College is a member University in Myanmar of SEAMEO, a major Southeast Asian educational organization. This is a sharing of my own experiences attending at British University College. I can say that I made the right choice to join my Bachelor degree in BUC. So, I highly recommend the British University College for the new students.

In our online teaching class, I have never felt bored in every subject because professors ask to participate the classroom activities and discussion time. Professors attract the student’s interest by sharing their experience. Therefore, it can obtain the knowledge not only in theoretical subject but also in real experience knowledge. In the offline learning, the teaching environment is very nice with projectors and high-speed Wi-Fi in each classroom. I attended only 2 weeks in the offline class but I really enjoyed the library at BUC. Professors and staff from BUC are really attentive to each student and always check our requirement in both online and offline teaching.
One of my favorite things about a British university College is that it guarantees the learning programs the complete satisfaction. BUC supports the same program and same quality of learning program with University of Sunderland.
There is also an internship program after graduated so I don’t have to worry about gaining work experience. Such kind of guarantee highly encouraged my parents to choose BUC for me. Another is the service of a British university college. As I said above, I joined the BUC at my bachelor degree program and I didn’t think that I would be familiar with the professors and staff. The University service team helps in the providing information such as assignment schedule and deadline for the learning in time and cares each student in a friendly way. If there is a problems in learning, service team arrange for one-on-one explanations with professor.

Swe Met Myo Myint Oo BUC
Hello everyone, my name is Swe Met and I am currently studying Computer Network and Security at British University College (BUC) for nearly two months now I am so excited to share you guys my experience with BUC. I chose BUC because many of my friends are quite fed up with our old university as it does not have the goals and potential we wanted as we are more interested in IT subjects. I have a friend in BUC, which he fully recommends me to BUC as all the staffs and school directors are friendly and supportive in every possible way. When, I first visit BUC, the quality of their class and teaching standards were unexpectedly amazing, for the school fee, I am giving, to be honest it was totally worth it. But unfortunately due to Covid-19, all of the students have to be taught which is much better to be honest as we don’t need to wake up early for class as all of the classes are taught online, which is much convenient and the student service team are like family because they call to our phones when we are late to attend to Zoom class. There are many programs in BUC, such as IT programs, Business Programs, English programs and Hotel Tourism management programs, which are all linked with huge universities in UK, Singapore and Australia. I finished my IGCSE and attended Business IT in one of the schools in Yangon but it was not good enough for me and so I chose BUC for my second year because the subjects and curriculum are what I really like and interested in. Students who finished from government school are mostly weak in English but this can be easily overcome in BUC because there is a special foundation program from all of the students who just finished their high school and are preparing to study in college or universities. In this foundation program, not only English language is taught, all of the necessary skills are taught by qualified teachers for three months, making you to be ready for college or university. After completing this foundation, students can choose any programs they are interested in as BUC have many.
BUC is one of the international schools opened in Yangon which is directly linked from TMC Academy in Singapore, not only that it is recognized by the Singapore’s Government Education Group and it is also linked with the famous university of Sunderland in UK. But if students are interested in other countries, BUC can help as an agent and linked to any preferred countries by the student. BUC have great staffs who are quite welcoming and friendly especially towards students and when going abroad, BUC student service will help with VISA, Passport and even accommodation and rent when studying abroad which is necessary for students like us. The schools linked with BUC are one of the best schools in ranking systems.

When completing the foundation or first year in BUC, students can choose any of the schools that are linked with BUC but if they want to choose other schools the credit scores in BUC are acceptable to every universities in the world, but of course students must be qualified also. But this is not be worried as BUC will help every student to achieve their goals

These are some of the few categories a student can choose from BUC after foundation program.

So for all of the students who recently finished IGCSE or Matriculation exam, I fully recommend BUC, because from the experience I got, BUC will be the most suitable college for young students who are scared because most lack the experience of college, but BUC has great foundation programs, which are essential for students who are about to being their college. BUC can also help you choose the right program as all of the teachers and staffs are very kind and supportive towards you and as far as I know, BUC has the most schools linked internationally such as Singapore, Australia, USA and UK, which is great when you can choose your preferred country to study. Another perks of joining BUC is that, all of the students can attend to English classes or other special classes which is expensive but luckily for students of BUC, all of these classes are free of charges, taught by specially experienced and kind teachers.

Here, BUC’s student service members are organizing a special birthday party surprise for the student, which is so special and unheard of in a college, because BUC is a family, taking care of all students.

This is a classroom in BUC, which the seats and the room is so great. As well as the teaching methods are so unique and effective.

As far as, I know other school or colleges lacks in activities for students and also, they are not friendly and family like. BUC’s student service team looks after students and even call to wake up the students when we are late for our morning class and there is a special feedback program held by the school, where students can speak freely about the teacher or the subjects if there are any problems. For me, I had some problems catching up one of the subjects and the school arranged special extra class, which is great for students as BUC cares for every student individually.
BUC is not like a school but a family helping students like me and you to achieve our goals faster and also better. So, this is why, I am recommending all my fellow students to join BUC, for a brighter, better future. So, I hope to see all the new friends and fellow mates in BUC, where we all are seeking for the best of the best, only available in BUC.

Eain Dra Myo Aung

General English and English for Academic
Purposes

Hello, I’m Eain Dra Myo Aung from EAP part time evening class (Oct). Because of covid-19 pandemic, my education was stopped at first year of the University of Pharmacy. Otherwise, I may attend second year now. All schools and universities were suddenly closed because of covid-19 pandemic. So, I had nothing to do at my home, except helping my mother in the kitchen. Therefore, I decided to attend English online class and I started finding on social media. And then I found British University College’s page and I observed everything about BUC. Finally, I impressed the learning styles and the teaching methods of BUC. Therefore, I decided to join BUC and I believed that BUC is the best for me. Further, I’ll never regret my decision. I have to learn online because of the greatly distribution of corona virus disease. Thus, I don’t get the full student life in BUC. There are a lot of interesting programs in BUC and all the programs are useful for the students of BUC.

      In the past days, I didn’t prefer learning lessons online very much because I was afraid that I would not understand the lessons. But now, I really like learning online and I get the new experience in online. The foreign teacher and the local teacher are very patient even though our internet connection is unstable. They also explain carefully when we ask them if we don’t understand clearly. They give us weekly homework and group assignments so that we can study again while we are doing our homework and we can also make more friends by doing group assignments. The classmates in our class are very friendly and honest. Therefore, the experience that I get by learning in online at BUC is extremely excellent. There are many facts I like about BUC. Among them, the one I prefer more is teaching 5skills. Not many other English classes teach 5skills. But BUC teaches us 5skills to improve our English skills greatly. Although there are 5skills to learn, the units and the lessons are not very difficult and they are easy to understand when the teachers explain once. We can study our lessons regularly and we don’t need to try so hard. English universities that teach 5skills are rare in English society but BUC does.

So, BUC is popular among English teaching society because of the good excellent teaching methods.The services in BUC are good and interesting. The assistant teachers and the main lecturers are kind enough to answer any questions we ask. There are scholarships, discounts and revision classes in BUC. Not only the services are great but also the assistant teachers are nice and take care of their students. They are good-looking and they always speak politely.
     Before joining BUC, I was really afraid and I had no confidence in speaking English language. But I really notice that I have greatly improved in English language after joining BUC. There are only advantages and no disadvantage for the students. The most conspicuous benefit for me is that I have confidence enough while I am talking with the others in English.
     British University College is partnering with University of Sunderland, UK as well as other universities and institutions in Singapore and UK. Upon completion of my class, I will get the certificate from TEG International College, Singapore which is externally examined by universities in UK. Therefore, we can get many opportunities because we can study abroad in Singapore or UK without takeing IELTS. We’ll get the certificate that have a signature of TEG International College, Singapore after one level complete. By joining BUC, we may have bright future and I’m really proud of becoming one of the students at British University College. I’m really impressed and satisfied the British University College and I have never forgotten the teachers and BUC.
