Become a host family!

Becoming a host family is a particularly exciting form of intercultural exchange. By spending time with an international guest, your family will learn about a new culture. At the same time, you contribute to making the time in Germany a very special one for your guest.

Guest from all over the world

Our international students come to Braunschweig from all over the world to improve their professional or language skills in our summer schools and to get to know Braunschweig, the region and Germany. This works particularly well if they are accommodated with host families or in shared flats during their stay in Germany, where they can practise their German in everyday life and get used to life in Germany.

For many international students, the summer schools also serve as preparation for studying at TU Braunschweig: they already get to know the city, the university and fellow students. When they return to Braunschweig at a later point in their studies, this knowledge makes it easier for them to start their studies abroad.

Why become a host family?

Hosting an international guest offers many advantages for families or shared flats:

  • Experiencing a new culture in their own everyday life
  • The improvement of language practice in English and possibly other foreign languages.

Families with senior school students in particular benefit from:

  • Preparing for their own stay abroad through the exchange with international students.
  • Getting to know the TU Braunschweig and other international students within the framework of own activities and those organised by the Summer School

What to expect when you host an international guest?
