As part of the integration tutorial, we regularly organize small events to bring the villagers together to promote exchange and time spent together. First and foremost, we serve as contact persons for international students who need information about life as a student in Göttingen, as well as providing support for new arrivals or those experiencing personal difficulties. We are also responsible for representing the voice of international students in matters of discrimination. For this reason, at least one of the two positions should always be held by an international student.
How exactly you want to shape the role of integration tutor is quite flexible and depends on the demand and interest of the village, but also on your own interests and skills as an integration tutor. We primarily offer events in English, but all languages and villagers are welcome!
In addition, integration tutors play an important role in self-administration, for example in the election of village mayors.
