The profession of teaching cannot be learned only by theory

Ayşim is from Germany, and is studying the double degree -Teacher Education in German & English:

“I decided to do the teacher education degree at HU because of the educational system and curriculum of HU. I believe that the profession of teaching cannot be learned only by theory. It has to be combined with the same amount of practice and HU fulfils that. Our first internship took place in our first year and lasted 10 weeks. There will be an internship every year.

I love meeting new people from all over the world and learning about new cultures, traditions and learning new languages. This programme enables me the opportunity to meet many international students and teachers.

Doing the double degree in German and English gives me the opportunity to go to different countries and work as a teacher. There are several German schools around the world that interest me and where I could work in the future. I am happy here in the Netherlands so I might stay here after I have graduated.

If you are interested in meeting new people, cultures and languages and study in a pleasant, safe environment with an equal mix of theory and practice; you should sign up for the Teacher Education programme at HU!”
