“Hallo. My name is Lukas Schwab and I am from Baden-Württemberg, Germany. I earned my bachelor’s degree in English and sports science, and I am planning to finish the consecutive master’s degree so that I can become a high school teacher. I love all kinds of sports, especially soccer. During my time at Carthage, I hope to gain a lot of practical experience in teaching. I would also like to share my knowledge about German culture and learn more about other cultures. See you on campus!”
