Interesting experience with plenty of highlights

Hi, my name is Monica Coleman, I am a senior biology engineering student hailing from South Carolina, but I attend school at the North Carolina A&T State University. I chose this internship in dentistry because I am highly interested in the dental field. With being a student, it’s really hard to shadow with student hours, and I thought this internship would help me get a more in-depth view of dentistry.

There are plenty of highlights. I got to see lots of fascinating cases. Every day was different. I learnt so much. My doctor was very in-depth and explained a lot of things that were not clear to me before. So, I think I am leaving this internship with a lot that I didn’t know before, and I think it’s going to be very helpful in the coming years.

The coordination was great, everyone’s super supportive, you would always get help from your Cerca Abroad team, your doctor, the other interns, and everyone has been super supportive. Even in Athens itself, everyone is super nice, like- you’ll be fine.

The biggest highlight of Athens for me would be the food, like, everything is great. I have discovered souvlaki- it’s so good. If you come to Athens try the food, try the bakeries, there are coffee shops everywhere. That is so great. Everything about Athens is great. Its small, everything you need will be within distance, it’s a great city.
