Together with the international challenge learning languages was the main reason why I took off to Austria. I had have a lot of German grammatically but was to afraid to use it. Now I can speak it much better and I really like it to try and talk, a lot of people set you at ease and in that way I´m not afraid anymore to make mistakes. I really suggest to know at least the basic phrases of the spoken language when you choose a country; a lot of my collegue students had difficulties to just buy a something in a store....About the lessons in English: I had have English for a long time at home and didn´t have any difficulties to understand the instructors. Though, my spoken English is really improving and that is just a really good experience.
