I experienced difficulties in the situations descrived above at the begining as I could speak just a bit of german. But I managed to learn the language pretty good and after some months I had no problem. The dialect in the german switzerland is really hard to understand but fortunatelly the academic language is the normal german and every german swiss can speak "high german" without any problem.

I was so busy committing to my studies I did not have the chance to enroll in German courses. I know I wouldn't have acquire much in three months, though, so I was satisfied with getting used to hearing the language and the local dialect about me. It will certainly help me absorb the language easier if I decide to seriously take up the language some day.
