One of my most memorable classes at the Deutschakademie was the one we had to learn about how to express ourselves when we went to the doctor in german. I mean nothing is worse than having to go to the doctor and not be able to tell them how you feel. But back to why I was so impressend with the class –  not only did we learn the words associated with sickness but we had to practice so many dialogues  in this regard that now it just comes natural to me. I no longer have to pause and think. On Monday my boyfriend was so impressed with me when we where at the doctor and it was the first time that he did not have to translate any word for me. So once again I have to say thank you Deutschakademie.
