Do Minh Tuong, Vietnam
Studying in Russia became an exciting and challenging adventure for me. From a new country to a new culture and way of life – everything was unusual, and I had to get accustomed to it.
The language barrier became the first obstacle I had to face. Despite the difficulties, studying Russian in Russia and speaking practice did me a world of good: I became more confident, and this laid the groundwork for my educational path in Russia.
In the beginning, Russians seem to be distracted and rather grim. This impression changed after I had made friends with my fellow students. I found out that Russian people are rather friendly. Besides, the stereotypes about Russians also turned out to be false. Russians don’t play with bears and don’t drink vodka for breakfast.
One of the key aspects of the Russian way of life that caught my attention was a focus on individualism and privacy, compared to community thinking which is predominant in Vietnamese culture. That’s why building relationships and networking with local residents required a different set of social skills and respecting personal boundaries.
The academic system, which is different from the Vietnamese one, also was a source of concern. And here, assistance provided by the teachers and staff members of the International Department turned out to be invaluable.
