Dear Austria

Today I can definitely say that almost three weeks of the course are done. Still, I have only the best impressions about my German classes and DeutschAkademie in toto. To my mind, it is just getting better and better every day. Now, I feel comfortable in using German both in oral and written forms. The classes give confidence so that I am not afraid to speak German anymore.

Last Thursday we had an engrossing class. We were talking about Austria. Anita, our teacher, came up with a game, thanks to which we had a desire to learn more about the country we live in. Then, we were told about Austrian regions, government, famous people etc. I have never thought that such boring things can be so entertaining. To tell the truth, such ‘without activities’ classes have always depressed me. But that lesson was great for sure.

So what exactly was learned during the class? Please do not think that I am stupid, but I did not know who governs Austria. Alexander Van der Bellen and Sebastian Kurz, I am so sorry 🙂 Nevertheless, now I know what are their main functions. Also, it was very unexpected to find out that Arnold Schwarzenegger, one of my best actors, is from Austria. Yes, as you noticed, I am not that type of fans that know everything about their idols.

To sum it up, I would like to say thank you to DeutschAkademie not only for my German language knowledge improvement but also for mind elevation.
