Herbst Conversation Partner Opportunity
The Herbst International sections of HUEN 1010 are looking for volunteers to have weekly conversations with international students.
You would meet with the student once a week, for about 20-25 minutes, just to talk and let them practice their English. You will most likely meet in groups of 2 international students and 2 volunteers.
The goal of conversation sessions is to allow international students to practice their English in a fun and easy way. The Herbst program believes the best way to do this is to pair international students with English speaking students their own age.
BOLD volunteers
. We would like to pair BOLD students with Herbst ELL students for conversation practice, counting towards up to 5 of their volunteer hours for the semester.
- Qualifications. Ideally, some will have already completed one year at CEAS, however, freshman are welcome to volunteer as well! Volunteers should be willing to commit to a whole semester with a conversation partner.
