The College has a special focus on bringing free English lessons to rural and often otherwise overlooked children in the alpine region, and the trainee teachers will gain experience teaching in more than twenty different schools and living in a variety of Austrian locations. The trainee teacher will also gain experience teaching via an online VLE.
