Hi, I'm Jack and I'm the CSA Intern (Erasmus+) for the 2018-2019 academic year! I'm currently in my fifth and final year studying German here at St Andrews. I spent my Year Abroad working as an English Language Assistant in a primary school in the small town of Haldensleben in Germany, which was very intense (nobody spoke any English!) but extremely rewarding. If you have any questions about the Study Abroad programmes, or even want to tell me about your own Year Abroad, then drop me an email at [email protected] and I'll be more than happy to help!
