My learning experience at Flinders is great.
The most exciting thing for me is meeting new people with similar interests to me. The lecturers are really supportive; they try their best to come up with ideas to assist us in understanding concepts and answer our questions. Whenever there was an assignment, lecturers would spend an hour explaining all the details that we needed to take note of.
