Niceeeee content Mimi, preciate the invite!! Feel free to invite whenever, I’ll always make time
Thank you Doc. I enjoyed interviewing you as well. I also learnt so much from you. Thank you for the opportunity and also for making out time from your very busy schedule.
We could do a Part 2 💃💃💃💃💃
Hi. How did u get a medtech degree within a year? Medtech is a 4year course here in Philippines. Wasn't quite clear on that part.
@@rekiyaE He mentioned he was studying at Uniben before coming to Philippines. So the courses he did at Uniben was reviewed/evaluated and that was how he got to do just one year in Medtech. Thanks for watching
@@adiimimi oh wow! That's interesting. Was shocked for a bit. Hahaha. Thank you for replying and great contents you have. Well done. 👌
@@rekiyaE Thank you so much. I appreciate you
This next generation Nigerians will transform Nigeria even more ... high skilled and educated men and women...
We will by God’s grace. Thank you for your nice comment
true like vietnamese before they study here in agriculture now they rich than us.
Thai government sent their rice experts to study rice farming in the Philippines. Now, we import rice from Thailand. Funny how Backward we became from being rice exporters. Back in the early 80s there are Thais, Hongkong Chinese Indonesians and Iranians studying in the Philippines.
@@amadoparragua6989 just additional info, so many middle eastern students are in Adamson University studying engineering, I'm not sure though if they take eng'g board licensure exam here and that once they do, if they are considered licensed once they go back there...I have met Jordanian and Iraqi students before.
And that's really funny and frustrating that we are importing rice from our neighboring Asian countries! So, that's why, I hate that senator who authored that bill for the unlimited rice importation, and the other who co-authored with that "senator".
Your guest is so smart. Having 3 degrees. Congratulations, Sir. When you go home to your country you will be a great help in your country's medical field. More power to you, Sir.
Thank you so much. Thanks for watching too
Can you mention his name...hard to remember. Congratulations on this informative interview!
I think people in the the medical/science fields are very intelligent. Whether it be nurses or doctors or biologists. etc...
Your judgement could be correct but there are also super intelligent people in other fields as well😊 Thank you so much for watching and commenting ❤️
The program there in the Philippines 🇵🇭 is patterned from here in the US, that’s why when you come here in US it’s easy to adjust and when you’re a graduate of the Philippines 🇵🇭, American look up at you coz we are good in clinical side.
Thanks for watching
I’m so glad that you have chosen to study in the Philippines. Foreigners are welcome to study in our country for we give best education in the world. Moreover, if you come to the USA and Canada and have your credentials evaluated by a designated assessment agency, most of the programs/degrees from the Philippines are equally comparable or the same in those countries. So good luck to all the international students in the Philippines 👏👏👏👍👍👌👌👌
Thank you so much. Yes, most schools are accredited as well. Thank you for watching ❤️
Great interviewer. You draw in the audience. I'm a Filipino but gres up in the US since 9 years old but returned to the Philippines for medical school (UST) in Manila. I returned back to theCalifornia and did residency in psychiatry. My training in UST prepared me well for the boards and residency. I see many Nigerian bloggers but your style is a level up. Great job. Good luck with your studies.
That’s so nice. Thank you so much Doc.
Adii, I have so much respect for you and your channel. It is so unique and very educational.
Much love. Good luck and all the best with your future endeavours as a medical doctor.
Thank you so much. I appreciate
Maybe, it's a good idea to raise your concern from the beginning of the class
That's also a good idea. Thank you 😊
@Adi Mimi...I advise you, even if your greeting is ignored, don't stop greeting to anyone you meet or to your fellow classmates, teachers in school, acquaintances. It's actually appreciated. It's a misconception that greeting is not practiced here in the Philippines or in big cities. It is practiced but not necessarily unappreciated. You can skip greeting to a stranger you don't know or someone you just meet once on the street. But greeting is always appreciated if you see the person so often already or know him/her already.
Thanks for taking time to explain this, I appreciate it. I personally greet those i know and don't greet strangers like i used to do before. Naturally in Nigeria, its a normal practice greet.
@@adiimimi A simple smile, a pat on the back, a nod of one’s head or raising one’s hand is already a form of greeting among Filipinos. One doesn’t need to say something just to greet someone coz Filipinos are generally laidback, carefree and candid people.
I'll try to talk to some of the Africans I see walking around my community. I am genuinely curious what they are doing here because we are far from the universities and business districts. I am guessing rental rates are cheaper but I am not sure.
You should talk to the Dean of your college and let him/her know that English should be used at all times in class. Find foreigners to sign a petition to help you solve your frustration.
Hello Troy, thanks for watching and thanks also for the tip. 😊
Agree that should do it...
I like this young man..he seems to be so down to earth and so humble..yo are going far young man..Have a good time in your journey.
Thank you so much for your lovely and kind comment
Your guest is exquisite, I reckon he would be a succesful doctor someday. I would love to have him as a son in-law.😊
Thank you. He is really smart.
I’d extend the message to him 😀 and thanks for watching as well.
Wow...this is the right definition of "industrious", nice vlog
He’s super focused. Thanks dear for watching and leaving a nice comment as well
Congratulations in advance for your MD
Thank you 🙏
i love your vlog really nice topic and good interview you have great future of this field
Thank you so much
You are not the only one scared of going back home bro😅... God help us. Nice video dear
It’s well dear. Thanks for watching
I do understand how you feel. As a Filipino living and working outside in the Philippines. Good that u brought it up. I think they will become more sensetive regarding that.
Adii you have a very neutral accent. I like it. You are a good communicator.
Thank you so much
Wow! Congratulations! I hope you'll become a good medical and health practitioner and an asset to your own country.
I love your channel ma'am Adi very informative watching from Roxas Oriental Mindoro, Philippines..
That was a great interview; informative.......
Thank you so much
@@adiimimi I salute him and he seems to be adorable and friendly guy. I hope he will be successful in his medical career in Nigeria. Any part 2 for him? He is very interesting .
@@injing He is very intelligent. I’m confident he will be a great Doctor❤️
Part 2 is possible. Glad you enjoyed the content.
Wow very nice to hear, being a Filipina, I love my country and proud of what we have been able to accomplish and contributed to the world and humanity 🇵🇭❤️😇 and btw you guys speak very well English now, then work in the middle east or Europe hehe
Very informative and interesting video I thoroughly enjoyed it. ☺️❤️❤️ Keep the content coming we're here for it.
Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed it
Great interview!
Yes, learn the Filipino language especially tagalog and you would be understood wherever you're in the country. Speaking in tagalog, you'll be loved more by locals.
I used to worked in a multi-national companies in Makati City with Briton, Australian, French, Indian, American and Spanish Nationals. Each of them studied Filipino (National Language) on their first 2 months. Believe me, speaking Filipino language has an amazing charismatic effect to locals especially words like good morning/after/gabi (magandang umaga/hapon/gabi), how are you (kamusta ka), what's your name (anong pangalan mo), etc.
I admire your dedication in studies and achievements here in our country.
Suggest all foreign students to have an organization where you can share your difficulties so you put them forward in writing to your respective schools.
Thanks for sharing ur thoughts being a medical students n Cebu..just focus n ur school to reach ur goals
Absolutely, thanks for your kind wishes and for also watching. I’m grateful. Salamat

Amen. Thanks a lot
Great motivation😍😍
Thanks dear
Nice video Adii. It's like I'll come to the Philippines to study
Thanks dear
Lol, our money bag, you don't need to come🤣
Great discussion,I agree the advice of guest ..absolutely right that need to be sensitive and learn at least basic local language cause this is huge help in the future.Base on my experienced where I live in the country not all people know how to speak English,really at first very hard to communicate and now I learn it everything is better than before.
True, learning the language is good. But unfortunately not everyone can learn fast. I only know a few words in Bisaya😔
NICE CONTENT GOOD GUEST WITH INTERESTING TO LISTEN
Thank you so much Javier
Hi beaautiful Adi. I always watch your vlig.

Philippino Nurses are very effective and thorough.

Bright young man, go and find your future around the world, you are now well equipped
Absolutely. Thank you so much for watching
Wow impressive, congratulations!

He talks calmly, both of you actually. I know most Nigerians (for me) talk fast. But this vlog is good to watch and I learned a lot from your daily experiences. 👌
Thank you so much. I’m glad this video was informative for you. Thanks again 😊
Hi idol. Thanks for this video. Your new subscriber here from Philippines.
Thank you for subscribing Ma’am
@@adiimimi your very much welcome idol.
But it’s always polite that professors speak in English since there are foreign students.
Newly subscriber hir keep safe always!!!
Thank you 😊
Yes, it is the problem of every country but sensitivity to others is a must and kind.
I love nigerians because they really strive harder for thier life to study here in the my country the phils, i support you all ang may god bless you all nigerians from the phils.
Thank you so much for your encouraging words. I appreciate people like you a lot. God bless
Wow😱😱😱 sending my full support in your channel 😘 watching from Qatar 🇧🇭🇵🇭🥰
Thank you so much ❤️
Thank you for choosing the Philippines to study Medicine. You are in a right direction. Quality of education in the Philippines of any course is US based and the Licensure examination in the Philippines is sometimes more difficult than the US Licensure/Board examination. That is why, to those foreign students who graduated in the Philippines, after graduation, do enroll in review centers (Medical review centers or review center of any course) in the Philippines because the Philippine review centers summarizes everything that you studied for the whole years from start to taking the Diploma and they will teach you more the possible answers that usually comes out in a Licensure/Board examination. Also, after enrolling in the Philippines, enroll also in the review center in your country and integrate everything that you learned :-) This is the reason also why Filipinos can easily pass Licensure examinations in any first world countries like UK, Canada, USA, Australia and many others. The Filipinos will always be there to help you :-)
Thank you. Yes Philippines follows the American educational system. Thanks for watching also
Interesting interview 😊
Thank you so much. I appreciate you.
@@adiimimi welcome Dr
For us Filipinos, students who can afford to be in medical school are branded as well to do families. So you are in the upper class. Anyways, you two are funny, thank you for being honest with your struggles. Although some Filipinos are on the higher education, they still honestly struggle to comprehend your English accent. For me though, it's not ethical to speak a language or dialect that others in the group don't understand. I admire you two for speaking out.
Hahaha really? Most of us come from a reasonably comfortable family back home not necessarily super rich.
I appreciate that you understand some of our struggles as foreign students. A lot of people would say “learn the language” which I agree with also but then it’s not easy as well. I really do appreciate you from the bottom of my heart. God bless you.
Very smart guy. He's going to be a good physician.
I agree. Thanks for watching
what a handsome. Dr. God bless you
He is❤️ Thank you
He’s gorgeous! Damn!
Wow... BS Medical Technology, Master of Public Health - bet this is like an advance Safety degree?, and MD thats very, very hard work... read some comments and saw the other language than English use in classroom issue again... hope that the locals who have international student classmates give the professors a friendly, polite reminder everytime another language other than English is used... hope the locals understand if they in the Visayas or Mindanao and have a few classmates fro Luzon amd their professor mixes his language usage with a nothern luzon or central luzon or Bicol region dialect...maybe it may make the lecture incomprehensible for the international students...
Hope the locals help out...
Thank you so much. I really do hope so as well. So sad he experienced that. Thanks so much for watching
Education has the biggest slice in Philippines budget for 2020, 2021 and 2022.
This is big oooo
Wooooooooooow 😮😮
I was super amazed as well. 3 degrees isn't a small achievement. I'm so proud of him.
Very nice. 🙂👍
Thank you so much for watching
I am also teaching in a university in visayas and I used English as my medium of instruction despite the fact that I don't have foreign student. Probably you just have to inform your teacher about your difficulties regarding the language. I am so sure they will adjust.
Thank you so much Sir Arnel. Your advice is noted. God bless you
Hi there Mimi, it’s sad to hear that you guys are struggling every time your professor choose to teach in Filipino instead of english knowing there’s a foreign students in the class. As a Filipino I think no school should accept a foreign students if they can’t able to taught them well and if the lecturer or professor can’t just stick to speak in English. Back in the days when I’m still a student we’re being taught more in English than Filipino and the teacher speaks Filipino only during Filipino class. You guys should complain to the admin of your school so they can do something about it.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful and kind comment and for also understanding his challenges. Thanks also for your suggestions. I'm very grateful. It's so beautiful to see very nice and kind Filipinos. God bless and Salamat po.
Yes,same in our school in UST Espania Manila. All our professors speak in English except during Spanish subjects. We already have Nigerian classmates during those time and that was 1973 to 1977 when Pharmacy course is 5 years.
@@celiasambrana6611 Thank you. That’s really really nice to hear
Education in Philippines is very good, and very Cheap compare to other Countries. English is the medium of instruction. However, you can not acquire citizenship. During my times in Philippines we have no African students.
@@mollyfong1595 you are correct. Education here in the Philippines is more affordable when compared to western countries. Thanks for watching
You together with other foreign student can make a request letter, (Attention school dean) pertaining to all concerns and suggestions, you need to do it in a black and white format. God bless
Thanks for the recommendation. God bless
♥️♥️♥️
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Indeed, if a university or college that accepts foreign students should make it their educational policy that the medium of teaching and class or group discussions should always be in English.
Thanks for watching and thanks for your comment as well
As a Filipino who works with foreigners and Filipinos in the IT industry, it does take a lot of effort to speak English all the time but I do understand what you said about feeling excluded 😁
Thanks for understanding. I hope you are coping well with your colleagues
Wow...must be very intelligent and very rich
Thank you for watching Arsenio. I’m grateful
nice testimony
Yea. Amazing one indeed. Thanks for watching and commenting. I’m grateful
Nigeria is actually a rich country than Philippines. I hope one day a graduate from the Philippines will soon become a leader in Nigeria like him. Wow.
Thank you George😊 Looking forward to that day. You always leave nice comments, thank you.
I agree... then in line with that hope some take up political science, public administration, or even criminilogy so that they have the outlook and develop the desire to get into Law School or College of Law in Nigeria...studying.of law must be in Nigeria
@@arsenioalba443 Yes we have schools that offer Law in Nigeria as well.
Thank you for watching and commenting
You got your facts wrong dude.. Philippines is richer because Nigerias Government Officials are way way corrupt than the Philippines..
Based on GDP, Philippines is richer than Nigeria. Population wise, it's nearly 3x of the Phils. population
He's damn cute❤️🥰
❤️❤️
Yeaah, i think good morning is not really particular but try to say kumusta po? They will reply to you and you will realize how far the conversations will go.. 😊
Thank you for that. KUMUSTA to you haha. Thanks a lot diba 😀
@@adiimimi todo bien senorita,,
Nice one.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting as well
there is one student, an african guy here in the philippines who knows how to speak french and is working in one of the call centers in manila. he is earning money here as a student.
Likely possible but it’s very rare. Thanks for watching
Use your education to reach out more Nigerians and heal them physically. I was volunteer with Mercy Ship for four years helping West African Nations using my Marine Engineering skills. You can volunteer to Mercy Ship and learn from the experts there. You will become BIG person in your country Nigeria.
Wow That’s amazing, thanks for sharing. Thanks for also watching and commenting.
You guys can work as call center agent home base here in the Philippines..
wow what an achievements go and served ur own country.
True, that’s a great achievement. Thank you for watching.
New subscriber here
Thank you so much
Ive met a number persons from Africa impress about their ability regarding languages as their are those who are tri-lingual... any combination.of.english, arabic, french, spanish, and some indiginous language...
That’s true also. Thanks for watching
Wow
Guys you have to discuss that to your professor?maybe sometimes they forget they have foreign students ,but is not an excused your professor should know that.🤔 actually I knew a lot of students studying In Manila mostly in the class are English speaking. The English speaking university in the Philippines is UST,Ateneo,Maryknoll College,Adamson, University of the East and still a lot more? but they're expensive university. Wish you both a success, stay safe.👍❤
Thank you Ma'am for watching our video. Thank you for the recommendations as well
I'm a Filipino who spent my childhood in Nigeria 70's and early 80'smy parents were drs. Working in Lagos Nigeria Its nice to know that Nigerian students are studying medicine in the Philippines to give service to Nigerian community keep it up and God bless you guys! I'm sorry to hear the hardship because of the language barrier but I suggest start basic easy Filipino languages..
Oh wow. That’s so nice to hear. I live in Lagos Nigeria too.
Learning would have been cool but it’s also not easy🥹
@@adiimimioh nice Nigeria was rich in palm oil I don't know now got good memories in Nigeria my parents say a lot of intelligent people there I was taken care of by a Nigerian teenager .. yes it takes years of experience to learn the language, nonetheless I love and miss the spicy Nigerian food the fufu with okra soup, egusi and there jolof rice 😋 but nice to know Nigerian people in the Philippines still got a good experience here God bless!
@@lsc242 hahaha you have taken fufu before? That’s nice😊😊😊
Yes There are lots of African students here and also many from Nigeria.
Medicine is easier to get here and we are thankful that they stick to the number of years you are expected to study.
@@adiimimiyou guys prob are rich Nigerian students you can see it's still nice to study here , yes I love fufu the banana and cassava yummy I'm looking for an authentic Nigerian restaurant in Manila if you guys now we're hehe
@@lsc242 You can check DINMA JANE on CZcams. She lives in Manila and also makes good Nigerian food. Here’s her channel: czcams.com/users/DinmaJane
It would be best to tell your instructors about your classmates speaking in their local language when there are 6 of you foreigners in a group.
Hello Reyna, thanks for watching my video and also taking out time to comment. I actually think it’s about the individuals in the group being sensitive and kind to other foreign students. It’s really not about the instructors and they may not be able to help if the individual does not genuinely decide by him/herself to speak in English to carry everyone along. I hope you understand. Thanks again for your suggestion.
@@adiimimi I know it's the individuals in the group. That's when your instructor comes in so that he/she can lecture these inconsiderates!
@@edwinjamora6004 Thank you so much, it feels so lovely to know people genuinely understand how we truly feel about this. Thank you. Salamat po.
If you want to work abroad try to apply going to england.. last year i meet 10 filipinos young doctor in england they are ateneo grad obiously i know they came from well off family when i ask them why they chose england they just want to have experience and also they want to see europe but eventually they will going home too.
Thanks for the information. 😊😊
Outstanding there with the MPH & MD. If you’re headed back home, you’ll probably have no difficulties landing a job. If you’re headed to the U.S., it might be difficult because there has been impediments. This is due to the USMLE & not completing a U.S. Residency.. Conversely, nurses with BScN degrees jump the line & are hired, but they’ve to successfully pass the NCLEX. Experienced doctors from the India subcontinent, Colombia, Canadians, Brits, Scots, Welsh and Western Europeans are afforded special schemes in order to practice medicine. Russians & former SSR doctors are downgraded to Physician Associates because of obvious reasons. Now, Belarus was formerly a SSR of the USSR which imploded as a communist country. Currently, Belarus has economic & military memberships with the Russian Federation. Likewise, it’s also a dictatorship just like Putin’s grip on Russia. And the Ukraine was also under the boot of Imperial Russia until 1991.
20:19 That's good you discuss your experience in the Philippines. But you should try to learn the local language as well for the least, try to imagine a Filipino studying in your home country versus your experience studying here or somewhere else? just a thought because Filipino that go abroad surely experience what you are experiencing now but man they have to learn the language... specially bisaya for all you know are proud of their language.. good thing they accommodated you.. yeah just sharing.
Thanks for watching the video and for your insightful feedback. Learning the language is good, it’s a plus actually since it will make communication better and easier. However, not everyone are fast learners when it comes to learning a new language. A few basic words is great but learning a new language can be very challenging.
@@adiimimi Good universities are expected to teach in English especially if they have accepted foreign students. It is the failure of the school system if foreign students feel left out because of use of regional dialects in instruction. The language of instruction is stated in the program brochures.
@@orlandodizon4755 I agree with you
Actually, greeting each other in the Philippines is actually still practiced but commonly found in rural towns or areas. In big cities like Metro Cebu and Metro Manila, greeting may be optional between strangers but still practiced among people who know each other like own family, circle of friends or anyone known to you. Greeting is always appreciated but usually ignored by strangers if you live in big cities.
Hello Giorgio, thanks for your input. Yea, living in Cebu city, most of the time the greetings are ignored by people especially when they don’t really know you. Thanks for the explanation.
Yeh...in the cities and urbam areas they are following the western fads they see in the news, and movies... it the rural areas that where one sees the real Philippines of community (bayanihan), voluntary helpulness, church going people where everyone one knows everybody, and looks out for each other...
@@arsenioalba443 Thank you so much for the insightful information 😊 Salamat
@@arsenioalba443 It's not about following fads. It's all about familiarity. In the rural areas, almost everyone in the town knows each other so greeting is always expected as a sign of respect. In the city like Cebu, I still greet my family, my workmates in office and even in restaurants or anywhere. Only in busy streets where greeting is impractical to do with thousands of people there.
@@lionhearted1969 in the urban areas news event, new gadgets, movies, tv shows , and fad are a driver in urban areas... not in the rurals... in urban areas its nice to see individuals smile at strangers but they would not be the majority... its more like " mind your own business"...
You people can really talk to your lecturers this way😳😳😳.... Nigerian lecturers left the building. This was a very interesting discussion, thanks for sharing. Kudos to your guests, I hope he will do Phd too...dont come back home ooo, perish that idea mbok. You didnt tell us if he's single 😏😏😏
Loooool Thanks for watching dear. Lool about relationship status, probably next time 😂
@@adiimimi We await oooo!
@@GbogboSwagger 🤣🤣 Okies
I blame the schools that accepted foreign students and were not able to cater to an international standard of instruction based on a language that everyone can comrehend. I remember back in 1950's when I was studying that most if not all our class where done in english.
Thanks for watching and commenting as well. I appreciate you
Mimi you speak clear english not like other Nigerians I find sometimes hard to absorb.
Thank you 😊 And thanks for watching also
hi you can complain to your teachers anyway I working in Saudi Arabia I cannot understand Arabic but I really try to learn after 3 months I learned already
Good you learnt. It’s ok. I’m almost done with my studies ❤️
For Filipinos, medicine is only for families who are financially able.
You guys are both eloquent on your English. Your suggestion is well taken. In America especially in California wherein almost 20 percent are Filipino nurses they are not allowed to speak the Filipino language but English only.
RAISE YOUR CONCERN TO YOUR PROFESSOR DOCTOR THAT YOU CANT COMPREHEND ONCE SOMEBODY SPEAKING BISAYA AND THAT IS REASONABLE. PLEASE RECOMEND OTHER MEDICAL UNIVERSITY OR COLLEGE LIKE UNIVERSITY OF PERPETUAL IN LAS PINAS, FAR EASTERN UNIVERSITY, UNIVERSITY OF SANTO TOMAS, UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES, ADVENTIST INTERNATIONAL
Thank you for your recommendations. Thanks for watching as well
I think it's really better for Foreigners to study around Northern part of the Philippines or much more in Baguio city because of language barriers, teachers and students speak more English there than in Visayas area.
Thanks for your contribution
Wtf are you talking about?
Philippines education system is modelled after United State because Philippines was colonized by USA for 50 years. Philippines is the 3rd Largest English speaking country in the world. More than 95% of its population speaks English, which is its official language. 20,000+ foreign students to Philippines each year for education in Engineering, Medical, Dental, Nursing, Shipping, etc.
Good luck both of you, future doctors❤️Heal the world 🌎
Thank you. I appreciate
Cebu is more regionalistic than Manila here we will translate as best as we could if foreigners are around.
I guess things are a bit different in Manila. Thanks for watching and also taking time to comment. I appreciate it a lot. Thank you
@@adiimimi wrong it's the same. I have an American friend who go to school in Manila and his classmates did not even bother to translate Tagalog to English. He even transferred schooling in Cebu at Cebu Doctors University. People from Cebu are friendlier .
@@johannacalumba6782 In my opinion, I think it has to do with the individual not really about city, Cebu or Manila. Most Filipino students if not all are very very fluent in English. If they can all be kind enough to understand that foreigners may not understand what they say in the group and translate in English, it will be really helpful to us here.
Thanks so much for your contribution. I’m very grateful.
@@adiimimi
I can understand you with that. I guess young Filipino students forgot to practice the proper etiquette when in the company of other non Cebuano speakers. But perhaps you just need to remind them about that.......of course in a nice way......and I'm sure they'll do it for you.
@@falc1858 We actually do remind them. Some understand and speak in English while some don’t. That’s why I said it depends on the individual as a person.
Thanks again for your comment
Nigerians and Filipinos need to mix like Halo Halo and make a new beautiful future Philippines ..make it the most exotic Asian nation in Asia :)
Hahaha sounds cool😀. And oh, I love Halo Halo.
Thanks for watching and commenting ❤️
@@adiimimi me toooo Lets Halo Halo for sure :)
You need to.open or raise up your concern and problem that your professor or classmates must talk english
You both need to inform the School management to have an action with your concern as they must know that youre a foreigner...
Thank you for the recommendation. Thanks for watching as well
Can you tell us the name of the agent he used to apply
Hi Adii, i feel the foreign students frustration when locals talk in Visayan dialect. I would assume, you guys are in Cebu City. Fact is Cebuanos are very proud of their dialect and they expect that you at least learn basic. Another thing is Cebuanos challenges the use of the national language Pilipino since its mostly based on the Tagalog dialect with some mix of other local dialects. The contention is that there are more Visayan/Cebuano speakers than Tagalog in the Philippines. Many will disagree but that's the reality.
Well, some students are very kind to us and they try to speak in English. It’s so sad he experienced this. Thanks so much Sir for watching
@@adiimimi Filipinos, especially Visayans tend to get nosebleed with we speak English... Have you heard this?
@@josephmariealba8483 Nose bleed? Yes. It means someone who can’t speak English right?
@@adiimimi Not really. It means you have to crack your nose / head to speak English, while speaking in native dialect comes as natural and effortless as breathing air. That is why you get a nosebleed when speaking English.
@@josephmariealba8483 oh really, I get now
I'm trying to understand how he got a degree in medtech within a duration of one year... Medtech is a 4 years course and currently in my final year. That part wasn't quite clear at all.
He mentioned he was studying at Uniben before coming to Philippines. So the courses he did at Uniben was reviewed/evaluated and that was how he got to do just one year in Medtech. Thanks for watching
He mentioned he was already deep in studying Geology back in Nigeria and shifted to MedTech in the Philippines. There must be a lot of subjects that were credited to the new course so he had just to complete or took subjects that were required specifically for the new course. It’s like you are already in your 4th year of a 4-year course when you decided to shift to another 4-year course with which you don’t have to start all over again since on the 1st to 3rd year, subjects are usually the general ones and not the major ones. Major subjects which are related to the course normally starts during the second semester of the 2nd year leading to your degree.
