There has been an increase in the number of Chinese students who study abroad for higher education in the UK and Chinese students have already become the largest group of international students of the higher education in the UK. Thus, it is vital to evaluate the current academic satisfaction and problems of Chinese students learning experiences in the UK in order to promote Chinese students to notice an improvement and better achieve their education goals. The study investigated the academic satisfaction and problems of Chinese students participating in the higher education in the UK by adopting the mixed approach of quantitative and qualitative research, with 200 questionnaires and the semi-structured interviews of 6 participants with different educational background level. It covered Chinese students’ satisfaction of quality of teaching, the accessibility of lectures and language adoption of participating in higher education in the UK and problems in the experiences of learning in the UK. The findings revealed that language adaption and accessibility of lectures were the major unsatisfied parts of Chinese students and language difficulties and not adapted to the UK’s education system were the main problems of Chinese students learning in the UK. Furthermore, educational background level of Chinese appeared to be factor in evaluating the academic satisfaction learning experiences in the UK. It was found that PhD students were more satisfied with it than B.A and M.A students. The main problems of B.A and M.A students were the limited language skills and having difficulties in adapting to the UK education system, respectively. Keywords—academic satisfaction; problems; Chinese students learning in the UK; different educational background level
