Abstract
In recent years, many international students have come to our college to receive medical education. This study aimed to compare learning skills between Chinese and foreign medical students. This will help us to formulate a more scientific and efficient teaching method, as well as to improve the level of medical education in our college. Pathophysiology classes were used as a measuring tool. We combined a questionnaire survey and teachers, experience to analyze and compare the performance of Chinese and foreign medical students. One hundred eighty Chinese and 120 foreign students were selected as subjects. The data of the questionnaires collected was analyzed with Sigma Stat 2.03 and Sigma Plot 12.5 software. Chi-square test was used for the comparison between the two groups. We found noticeable differences in cultural background, teaching style, learning habits, practical ability, and teacher-student interaction. Students should learn from their peers, learn the strengths of others so they can improve on their weaknesses. This approach can achieve a more practical teaching experience and will improve the overall quality of education.

The Teaching and Research Department of Pathophysiology in our college is responsible for providing medical education to international students while still teaching to undergraduate Chinese medical students
Zhao (2011) believed very important, so this study aims to do a comparative analysis of the teaching of Chinese and international medical students to obtain information for improving the learning experience of both parties
Summary
