Personal comments
At first it was a struggle especially to converse deeply with others and understand others, while they talked with such rapidity. Also getting used to studying and being instructed in German was difficult at first but well worth the benefits to what I was able to learn. In the end my German became much better, especially since I had a native german speaking girlfriend.

The best way to learn a language is to live in the language, and that was very true for my experience. There was such an improvement from the first to the second semester and the second semester seemed so much easier and was much more enjoyable because of my improved confidence with German.

Everybody speaks English, and sometimes, the other German students want to practice their English with you! If you ask them to correct your German so as to help you out with YOUR German skills, they will happily (and most politely!) oblige.

I study German, so it's only normal I had no problems with the language. However, I have to add that I also spoke a lot of English (many native english speaking students & students who speak English better than German).

I had no particular problem, certainly because I had studied German before (at school, at University); it could have been quite difficult to attend most courses without these good linguistic skills in German.
