I am Kaiwen, a Student Support Adviser for international students from articulation programmes in the Faculty of Science. Through my experience of working as an international student Support Adviser and being an international student myself, I fully understand that studying abroad can be very challenging for many international students.
It is my passion to help you navigate through these challenges when you face various social-cultural and academic adjustments in a new environment, helping you regain your confidence and work-life balance, and seeing you thrive on your study journey at the University of Auckland.
I have a Master of Science majoring in Marine Science and I have a career background in international exchange, academic writing, research and field support. Please feel free to send me an email and I am happy to help.
