Well, it's not even one challenge, there are many challenges.
A student like me, coming from a non-speaking English background.
And with very limited academic history.
There are a lot of challenges that I have gone through, however I could say one of the present challenges I'm facing ...
is actually having a hundred per cent confidence that I can do whatever any other person can do.
Even though now I'm very relieved, I'm very confident that I can do something ...
But if I compare my standard to the standard of the Australian born and school-going children ...
I ask myself, am I fit to be in this category.
But with the support of this university it's really a relief that I can boast of being a university student.
Because I'm coming from a family - none of my parents ever went to school.
So if I have got the challenge and I've got the opportunity to challenge it I have to do it.
There are lots of difficulties, especially when it comes to writing an essay, academic essay.
It's a bit of a challenge, because the concept of writing an academic essay is not only about ...
actually putting a pen on paper to get ... give words that you want, it's about a critique.
And it's about following the procedures that are required within this school that you are doing.
That you really have to take into consideration.
However, if you haven't got those skills and the knowledge, the background of what you are expected ...
it's a very big challenge. You may do what you want to do, but it's not what they want you to do.
So this is where the challenge lies.
And until you step into the challenge it's difficult to analyse and understand actually what it means for you to be there.
