‘ … Students may well believe that the mere fact of studying abroad in a culturally mixed group means that they have already acquired intercultural competence (IC). Yet this is a myth (Deardorff, 2015) … Consequently, considerable support and training are needed in order to develop generic IC’ - Cited in - Intercultural competence for students in international joint master programmes Maria Yarosha, M.,Lukicb, D & Santibáñez-Gruber R.

Student testimonials
Attended another academic writing session with Alison today. Surprises me every time to learn there are still things I can improve in my academic writing. Alison’s sessions have certainly contributed to the development of my academic writing this year. I would highly recommend Alison’s sessions to fellow students seeking guidance on their academic writing.
‘It is very important to have the awareness of respecting people from different cultural and linguistic backgrounds.’ Chinese UG Student
