In September, I started my pre-master’s program at Tilburg University. In the Netherlands, where I earned my bachelor’s degree, passing the entire pre-masters course was still required. The beginning was disorganized and unclear. Too much coursework for a pre-master’s six months. Teachers don’t know the answers to my questions, thus I’ve been having trouble. Considering that you are new to the university, there is a lack of guidance. Teachers speak to you in a very patronizing manner, sometimes even inappropriately.
