I attended a Polish course at university but it was not like expected. I learned to less to survive due to the fact that the course focused on grammar. The whole semester was a real improvement for my English.

Housing

Type of housing: Apartment/House

Arranged by: Independently - My choice

If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House

Why?

Cheap and really great: you can choose a location both close to the university and to the market place, the appartments are really huge for an average of 200euros a month each in co-rental

Personal comments

Don' t use Ober Haus to find a flat, the best is coming one week before and have a look in the nowspapers with your tutor. Ober Haus is extremely expensive
