@December29 I don't know about language requirements, however I am guessing the mentors whom will coach you all have english-proficient, but mainly I want to point out that you have to create a Listener account to participate as an intern. so this will be your first step if you are interested, which it sounds like you are :)

@December29

Not really. If you are able to understand documents in english I believe you're good. You can offer support to guests and members in your native language not english if you wish. PM me for more details if you wish. + what Nick said above, about being a Listener first.
