Today was the first of 16 German lessons at my language school in Munich for the ten of us.  As one of class 1A, I’ve moved to Germany from rainy England until August to join my boyfriend, who’s on a temporary work transfer.  I studied German at school and assumed it would all come flooding back to me…. ….It didn’t, and here I am in Munich staring blankly at shop assistant after shop assistant, repeatedly asking ‘Sprechen sie Englisch?’.  Rightly, I’ve signed up for some lessons.So I’ve paid for my lessons, paid for the text book, and turned up to the first lesson.  Our first lesson turned out to be great.  We have a lovely teacher, Betinna, who made the lesson varied and fun.  We learnt how to introduce ourselves, where we come from, and what we do for a living.  After starring at a German text book for my first few weeks in Germany, it was great to practise actually speaking to each other.  I think it’ll be a while before I lose my dodgy English accent though!
