Administration, support staff and technology
Our administrative assistants
Annegret Seegers-Träg
comes from the Rhineland and has stayed in Franconia because of love. She has been working as a secretary at the Language Centre since February 2014 - and she loves it! She takes care of all staff matters, organises the DAAD examination twice a year, keeps the homepage up to date, looks after the needs of guest students, advises students on their language training and always has a sympathetic ear for them as well as for all the staff at the Language Centre. You can also talk to her in English, French and Spanish. Her favourite German word is `Gedöns´. In culinary terms, however, her favourite word is definitely ´Pommesbude´.
