overseer Explanation: Maybe you can use "overseer" as it has a broader meaning than supervisor, which is mostly used in work-related situations. An overseer would take care all aspects of the apprentice's life while he/she is staying abroad. Hope this helps you. Lived and worked in Germany for many years. |
