So first let me start explaining how the German Intensive Course went. As I stated earlier, it was 5 days a week for 5 hours a day for 6 weeks. We had two teachers. One of them was good, and of course we had her only two days, while the other one we had for 3 days. I think everyone liked the course with the good teacher, but the bad one made it so painfully mind-numbing. There were about 25 students in the class, and she would go through everyone in the class over and over, so really you're only speaking for about 1 minute every half hour. And it's not like she tried to make it interesting either. I think she really just wanted us to hate it there just a little more than she did. She would make us do 10 or 20 minute assignments in class just so she could text messages on her phone. It was pretty ridiculous. So that course finally ended, and I think everyone surprisingly learned a lot - Try or not, your listening comprehension has to improve. I'm planning on taking only German as a Foreign Language classes, and for some reason those start a week after everyone else, so I had a week just to do nothing. It was great.
But first let me keep the updates coming.
