Haaaaallo guys!

Things go pretty fast at Deutsch Akademie! So friday was time for testing the progress of we, the students, in German language. The test was mainly concerning the Präteritum of sein, the description of our Zimmer, including the position of the furniture around. So basically now we are able to say something like:
“I put the carpet on the floor” “The lamp is on the table” “Where do you put your Videorekorder?” (although hardly anyone uses a videorekorder anymore… anyway a tribute to a milestone of home entertainment !)

I must say that I am very happy about the intensiveness of the course, it really helps me to keep it up and to practice on a daily basis with anyone I meet. People who know me also know that I have a preference for SHORT BUT DEEP CONVERSATIONS with strangers, though. I found much easier to speak out loud sentences and simple conversations, and at this point I think is important to apply what you learn daily without worrying too much about being perfect in grammar.
