My first two weeks at PSU are over and so far it has been a great time here. All of my courses have been very interesting so far and I think I will learn a lot during my semester here. Especially when I look at the books that we got from PSU (they are included for asiaexchange students) this semester is going to be quite some work.
Originally I had classes from Monday till Friday but luckily we could persuade our lecturers to move the Friday classes to other days, so we can have a long weekend.
Principles of Marketing (Mr. David):
It's a mixed class with Thai students as well as exchange students and we're around 50 students in that course. I really like this class because the teacher is quite funny and he explains everything very well. The course hasn't been too difficult but I still think that you can learn quite a lot there. Another plus is that the teacher is a native English speaker (maybe British?) so I can improve my English at the same time as learning about marketing. (He is also teaching leadership and management). I can really recommend his classes.
Strategic Management (Mr. Somjate):
This is another mixed class with Thai and foreign students and it's about the same size as marketing. This course is a bit more demanding than marketing but since there is lots of group work involved you get to practice everything quite often. Even though the teacher is Thai his English is very good so there are no problems to follow his class.
International Business (Mrs. Mary):
This class is foreign students only (around 20 students) and so far it has been my favourite course. The teacher is American and she shares lots of experiences she has made in the industry with us. This makes her class very interesting. We have quizzes every week and the first one hasn't been too difficult so I think if you put some work into this class it should be possible to get a good mark.
Thai language (Mrs. June):
You learn a lot in this course but it is also very demanding. We go through the capters very quickly so it is necessary to review everything regularly to keep up with the vocabs. Unfortunately we don't learn how to write Thai in this course.
