Why I enjoy working with international students...
I have been an international student at different colleges/universities around the world. For a lot of students, when they do not have a support system when they travel internationally, they often does not grasp the real/fun experience of being an international student. They often push themselves into isolation. I want to be a support system to them when they attend UNI. I want to share my experience. I want to help them feel belonged in our community and normalize what they feel such as homesickness and isolation.
