This week we invited Jelle Tierens, the new VUB Kotcoach. Although the VUB planned to hire a student coach way before the corona crisis, hiring Jelle has proved to be more than necessary in recent weeks. As Kotcoach, Jelle helps students in need of fighting loneliness, feeling at home on campus and, in September, new students moving in.

And we are back for round two! 😍👇

This week's topic is about living on kot at the VUB. Moving into a kot gives young students the freedom they were dreaming of. But living alone, taking care of themselves, learning independently and making new friends is not easy for everyone.
