Why Choose Pembroke?

  • Pembroke is one of the larger language colleges in terms of tutors and students, offering an unusually wide variety of languages. Our key tutors in European Languages are Dr Tim Farrant, Tutorial Fellow in French and Professor Guido Bonsaver, Tutorial Fellow in Italian. In Middle Eastern Languages, our Tutorial Fellows are  Professor Nicolai Sinai and Professor Fitzroy Morrissey who are both tutors in Arabic and are also responsible also for Persian, Turkish and Hebrew.

     

  • Modern Languages has a number of dedicated subject reps who organise events throughout the year, giving you plenty of opportunity to meet and socialise with students across multiple linguistic disciplines. These subject reps also act as an academic and pastoral interface for students, within both European and Middle Eastern Languages.

The terms are so short and there is so much to do that time really does fly, and you are often left with a feeling of wanting to do more – to find out more about your subject, to explore the city more, to meet more people.
