  Introduction
  Speaking of the challenges or problems that I came across during my previous studies as a student are many.However,I would like to highlight the challenges I have been facing in my current school-HKIED (Hong Kong Institute of Education).I would probably be in lost in thought for a long time,because there are a lots of miserable and unforgettable experience that I have been through.While I have been experienced,thankfully I have acted in it maturely and have ability to probably overcome and face everything positively.These memory of taken positively will help me to overcome all the obstacles and challenges that I might face in my future study in the field of Higher Education.
  1.Difficulties for Mainland Students to adapt to the College Life in Hong Kong SAR
  The first rewarding problem that had disturbed me for half a semester was the brand new studying and living environment I was subjected to when I stepped foot in HKIED,to my surprise is that all the classmates were mainly from different provinces of mainland,Hong Kong locals ranked the second and international students were just a small part.Therefore,different students with different educational backgrounds had brought about a lot of problems and difficulties for us to study and live together in terms of cultures,languages,the way we think and the appetite for foods and,etc.
  The first challenge for me was the way we thought and the way we solve the problems,which is tightly connected to the Chinese tradition culture.For example,most of the education in mainland is the Force-Feeding Education; we called it Cramming Method of Teaching (Yolanda Sharma,2011).Even in University of Mainland,most of teachers still keeping using this methodology because they believe this would be good for students,and after living and studying under the this kind of education system for more than 10 years,I had already gotten used to it.Thus,there was a very embarrassing situation that I came across on the first day of my Master study in Hong Kong.I had been wondering until the commencement day,like ‘why don’t we have course books of this semester’,and if they did not prescribe a booklist,what am I going to learn? This got me very worried and anxious at that time,after that,I tried to subdue my fury back and rushed to the office of faculty and asked for justices finally.To my surprise,every administrator in the office laughed at me,and told me there are no specific course books,and suggested me to go library to find out the relevant resource instead of being angry,I could still remember I almost lost my temper at that moment because I thought they are not taking any responsibility for their students,because I paid the tuition fee and finally,I had no choice but to do something practically for myself,so,I headed to school library for a visit and realized what they meant.   Everything had changed since the instructions and introductions of how to use the I-Search and E-Resource tool had given to me from a nice and friendly librarian.Thank God Almighty,it is the most powerful and amazing ways to get accessed to the resource that I have never met in any library in Mainland.Like for example,when I am looking for a book and it is hardly to be found out,and all I have to do is to use I-Search function,type the title of the book and tap the button of Enter.More awesomely is if there are no relevant books or articles available right now,I can use the E-Resource function to find it out,read them online instead of looking for it from another library.Because E-Resource can get accessed to pretty much every academic article from all over the world,which are the things that I have never ever seem and experienced in Mainland China.Because all the resource from oversea has been blocked by People’s Communist Party,even Google Search is included.What a shame.No wonder most of the Hong Kong local students and oversea students can have a gut to doubt and criticize teachers’ even professors’ viewpoint towards the hard cracking issues.
  In addition,the enlightening and encouraging ways of teaching methodology in Hong Kong has made me good at debating and always keep being creative after studying in there for nearly a year,thus,I could find out there would not be 100% correct on someone’s view,and there also would not be 100% wrong with other’s views,all the commenter need to do is to see things on different way,to see things critically,and also to see things not only for a short term value but also for a long term value in a sustainable way (Hong Kong Higher Education,2007).Only by doing these can we meet the norm of the field of high education and make it more globalized and diversified.
  2.Power of Cooperation in the Years of Studying in Hong Kong
  As I may recall,like a year ago,it was the first time for me to receive the Master level course study in HKIED,and the main challenge I need to face to was the Group Conflict problem,because as an Mainland student who has been studying for more than 15 years under than Chinese traditional culture and I bet,most of the mainland students have already gotten accustomed to the habit of self-studying instead of the group study or group work (Michael
