Current Events

This semester the Self-Access Center organizes once again various events where language learners can meet and talk to each other. All events have in common that they highlight the joy of speaking and getting to know each other.

International Book Flea Market

Language Books and International Literature

  • Wednesday, 26 June, 2024
  • 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
  • In front of building 9 (AStA building)

Would you like to learn a language but don't have the right language book yet? Or would you simply like to improve your language skills and are looking for entertaining literature in a foreign language? Then check out our international book flea market!

We’ll be offering a large selection of language books and international literature (e.g., in French, English, Spanish or Italian). You‘re also welcome to bring your own language books or foreign-language literature and swap them with our selection of books or simply leave them with us. The leftover books will be returned to the book exchange shelf in the Self-Access Center (C 5.104).

We look forward to seeing you!

The tutors of the Self-Access Center

Close - International Evening with the Unikino Lüneburg

  • Tuesday, June 18, 2024, 8 p.m.
  • Lecture Hall 1
  • Free admission!

Together with the Unikino Lüneburg, the Self-Access Center will show the movie “Close” (2022), directed by Lucas Dhont. Léo and Rémi, both 13 years old, are best friends and are as close as brothers. They are inseparable, trust each other and share everything. As the summer comes to an end and they move to a new school, their close bond suddenly begins to falter - with tragic consequences. A sensitive and even Oscar-nominated drama about closeness, distance and alienation. With tender precision and an infinite understanding of the fragility of life on the threshold of adolescence, Lucas Dhont tells the stirring story of an intense friendship.

After a short bilingual introduction by the Self-Access Center, the film will be shown in its original French with English subtitles. Admission is free!

MondiALLE: Pubquiz & Karaoke "Songs from home"

  • Friday, 24 May 2024
  • 8 p.m. Pubquiz + 9 p.m. Karaoke
  • Building 9, 1st floor

The tutors of the Self-Access Center (SLZ) warmly invite everyone to a pub quiz and for karaoke music enthusiasts – whether on stage or in the audience – to our event next Friday. The stage is open to everyone so there will be a variety of different music genres. The theme is ‘Songs from home’, and you are especially welcome to sing songs that remind you of home. The evening will also give you the chance to talk to other students in a foreign language and to meet new people.

For a donation drinks will be provided. An international buffet is planned, and we would appreciate if the guests could bring their favorite snacks or dishes.
