The project University School Dresden is looking for students for 6 weeks (01.05.-15.06.2024) for one day a week as a student learning companion at a secondary school either in Zittau or Weißwasser. On this one day, you will accompany a class 5 in their learning, together with 4 other students. You don't have to be studying to be a teacher, but you should be curious and want to support students in their learning. On this day, you will take over 6 lessons, but not subject lessons, rather you will help the children with reading (you will receive a short training for this), develop research questions with them and then answer these research questions together with the students.

You will be paid 8 hours per day at the school as a SHK (student assistant).

If you are interested in breaking new ground in school education with us, we look forward to hearing from you. Please send a message directly to .

You don't have time yourself, but would like to support us? We need to be able to place around 10 students in one of the two schools one day a week for these 6 weeks. Please help us find suitable students and pass on this information. You can also find it on the project's social media channels. You can find the links below this news article.
