The FH offered a short, two-week language class for exchange students before the semester began. This was very good, and my German imporved a lot. But during the semester, the same teacher offered a German class that only met once per week. It was not as good, and I dropeed it quickly. Really, everybody can speak english. You have to "try" to speak German in social situations?

Although having studied german for 4 years before coming here, actually speaking german is another thing!!! It takes some weeks till you understand what the lectures are about and takes about a month to start speaking german!!!Unless you speak english off course!!!

The studies were very difficult at first because of the language. It was the work placement that really changed things round regarding the language.

I had no communication experience. During german courses we concentrate mostly on the grammatic of the language.

German is a really difficult language; I have never studied it before the experience in Wiesbaden, but after 4-5 Months I´ve taken 5 exams so... not that bad!

If you want to speak German, do not meet any of the foreign students. I did meet them so was destined to speaking English for the whole semester. Of course in lessons and at work you speak German but still, nothing would beat a German group of friends or girlfriend!
