Experience Reports

Our lecturers share their personal experiences from abroad and give an authentic insight into their everyday life on the ground. They report on teaching, encounters, and special moments that shaped their time. This gives you a realistic picture of what to expect and helps you prepare as well as possible for your own placement.
