After your registration, you will be matched with your buddy or mentor. Together you will agree on the frequency of your meetings or the aspects that you would like to work on together. Every student has different needs and expectations and therefore, every match is different. Your buddy or mentor might be willing to pick you up from the airport or show you his or her favorite spots in Marburg, you might study together, visit events, practice your German skills or just occasionally have coffee together. (Please also be aware that there might be more mentees than mentors or buddies so the program can unfortunately not guarantee a match.)
Additionally, you can participate in a an eMarMento course to facilitate a lasting learning process, strengthen your intercultural skills and receive a confirmation of participation. Or you can take it easy with your buddy as a supporting companion throughout the semester full of intercultural exchange.
