Dear BeBuddy members, how are you doing? We hope you have a nice and successful week! Here are some useful information for you:
1) You want to help internationals in learning German? Sign up as a German tutor and get your commitment recognized (Certificate International)
The International Office organizes German mentoring meetings in the Humboldthaus every Friday, 1-3pm. All available dates can be found here<:%20https:/www.facebook.com/events/1271091306388881/>.
German speaking students act as tutors to international students and provide them with additional support in learning German. You can just sit and talk about different topics, exchange interesting information about your studies or read German newspapers or other interesting texts together. Eight hours of work as a German tutor are recognized as a component of the Certificate Internationalhttp://www.rwth-aachen.de/go/id/bxgy.
To all our German speaking students: Sign up as a German tutor and help your international fellows to learn German in a nice and relaxed atmosphere.
