What is "Let's Talk"?



"Let's Talk" series is a safe space for students of diverse backgrounds to meet and discuss topics pertaining to immersing themselves in the culture of Maryville College and the United States.  These sessions are facilitated by Claudia Werner, Director of Counseling at Maryville College.  

Did you know? Claudia Werner has traveled frequently to visit her family in the United Kingdom. She loves to hear about your experiences, and help foster health and wellbeing among our international community.

This is an informal judgment free zone that encourages dialogue and questions, the recognition of differences, and it holds each person accountable to do the work of sharing experiences and coming to new understandings. These intimate conversations allow students to meet one another and to connect in a meaningful way.  Guess what? Talking about what you are going through on a weekly basis helps with your adjustment and success!

Come talk about whatever comes to mind - self care?  English slang that you don't understand?  Missing home?  How to connect with US students?  Any topic is welcome!

See you Wednesdays @3:30pm at International House.
