Leeds International Summer School (LISS) is a four week programme that provides a taste of British University life and culture to international students from a wide variety of educational and cultural backgrounds.

As a Social Assistant, your role will involve orienting students to their new environment, helping them to settle in and feel welcome, offering help and guidance where appropriate, providing a point of contact outside of class time, facilitating their social interaction, maintaining a friendly and responsible presence throughout the Summer School, and acting as an ambassador to the University of Leeds.

You will also be required to carry out some administrative tasks before and/or during the Summer School.
