Hi, Looking back on the past two weeks, I really can say that I learned a lot in these 15 days that I am in DeutschAkademie. I know there is a long road a head of me to be able to have a descent conversations, but it is getting to me and I am ready for it! Since we are beginners, we are going over the light stuff and some basic stuff to be able to keep a light conversations. We learned a lot of basic phrases, words, and grammar and I was able to put it in use. Today, I encountered a interesting situation at one stores (shopping mall). as I was looking some clothing to purchase, I was approached by a lady which was looking to purchase something for her husband and since she was not sure would it fit, she asked me for assistance, off-course in German! :) I did not want to respond on English and used my German ( TRIED!). :) To be honest, I helped her little bit in English because I did not know all the words so since she spoke English, I used some English as well. So yeah, thank you DeutchAkademie and my teacher for your help!
