Today, during our break, I planned to “shoot” some pictures of my classmates to share them with you. But I got in a discussion with my Indian friend about one of the topics we were working in our lesson today. When we finished our discussion I realized that some of my classmates already left the room for some reasons: maybe a cigarette or so? Maybe you know, he he… Anyhow, I will try to capture my classmates tomorrow and updated the new pictures later.

Since this week, we have a full class, which makes me very happy. Probably some of my friends were busy during the first two days. So let´s count, how many members we have now in my class: 2 Indians, 2 Brazilians, 1 Israel, 1 Spanish, 1 Italian,1 Mexican, 1 Chinese, 1 Vietnamese (me, he he)… So totally we are 10 people now, which mean I have 9 classmates and 1 teacher! … Is it too much mathematic here? He he… Just teasing you little bit!

Most of my friends arrived here in Munich some months ago. Some of them visited already the 1st level of my school., ^^… I don’t know how they heard about DeutschAkademie. Maybe from their families or friends (like me), or they saw the advertising of DeutschAkademie in U-Bahn (subway) or so. Some came here for studying, some for travel or visiting friends and or move to Munich to live here. My Chinese friend Jeny studies Deutsch because it is very useful for his master degree. He told me, his study is mostly in English, but he thinks Deustch helps him to do more research about any topics. My Brazilian friend Nina studies just because she thinks Deutsch is good for her future, she already can speak English and Portuguese and now it would be great if she also can speak Deutsch, so she decided to spend her vacation in Munich for studying; I asked her: “Why don’t you study Spanish?”, and she answered that Spanish is quite similar with her native language (Portuguese). She always can study Spanish by herself, but with “Deutsch” she needs to go to school. My Israelian friend speaks already very well Deutsch, he lives since two years in Germany already, and he needs the training because of the grammar which is quite difficult in German – even some German people don’t know all. The rest of my classmates study “Deutsch” because they moved already to Munich for living. Some have a business here and some plan to live here in the future. For myself, I prepare myself for my next study, which I would like to complete here in Munich. We all have different reasons, but we all have the same goal: Wir möchten alle Deutsch lernen.

Cheers!
