  • The Leonardo Programme explained

    Friday, 02 December 2011

    If you have recently graduated, you may be able to benefit from a work placement in another European country. Leonardo Mobility funding enables UK organisations to offer work placements in other European countries and provide individuals with a unique opportunity to enhance their skills and gain valuable experience. Participants can be any age but must not currently be studying in Higher Education. Part of the EU’s Lifelong Learning Programme, Leonardo Mobility aims to support UK vocational education and training (VET) organisations, staff and learners to work together with EU partners to improve training, skills and employability.

  • I was very excited to be invited by King's College London's Study Abroad Office (@breakfastabroad) to speak to their students about making the most of their time abroad, including the summer holidays before and after. We talked about foreign internships, part-time work, blogging, keeping a vocab book, joining in with local events, taking up courses and classes... in fact, here are my presentation slides so you don't miss out:

  • As you’ve moved into your new city and seen (most of) the sites and made your way through the various cafés, you might feel a little...Bored.

Although many students choose to spend their year abroad partying and going on trips, that’s not to say there isn’t time to practice something you love, in another language.

  • The Year Abroad: Then and Now

    Tuesday, 08 November 2011

    It has been fascinating to hear stories about what the year abroad was like 20-30 years ago. It makes me realise just how easy we have it now, although there were definitely benefits to being more out of the loop and less reliant on the Internet, which our contributors (one who studied abroad, one who worked abroad, one Erasmus student and one language assistant, all in Europe) were quick to point out. I thought I’d compare and contrast “then and now” for you here so you can judge for yourself. Please do let me know if I have missed anything or made any mistakes, and I’ll keep it updated…
