My name is Hana and I am 16 years old. I have come from Australia to study ballet at the Wiener Staatsoper Ballett Akademie.

I am very excited for my new independent life style here in Vienna! To make my studies worthwhile it is crucial for me to understand the German language so I can take on board the corrections that I get in ballet school that are in German.

And that is why I will be starting at Deutsch Akademie Wien. After going into the Akademie to have a look, I found the building facility is very nice and all the staff are very friendly and I am looking forward to my first class!
