Conversation Partners
We are looking for a few undergraduates to pair as Conversation Partners with International Graduate Students who are studying to be AIs. The international students would like to learn about the US culture, undergraduate life at IU, and learn how your undergraduate education is similar or different from theirs. You would meet an hour a week for about six weeks at a time and place convenient for you. Sometimes students go to restaurants together to learn about each others’ food and holidays. Sometimes they meet at a café, the Art Museum, or another interesting place on campus. Some of the undergrads and graduate students have become friends.
If you can meet with an international grad students one hour a week and would like to learn about another culture, while talking about your own culture, please contact me. I will try to have the meet-and-greet next Friday, Feb. 17th, later in the afternoon.
