ASB is a bilingual school meaning that all information is required to be in both Danish and English. However, I found that some English information sites lack the depth of the Danish versions. Therefore I so recommend students to take basic Danish language lessons.

Sometimes it was a bit difficult to speak with danish people, because they always speak in danish. I had to be all the time telling to my flatmates to speak in english.

When I arrived to Denmarc it was a bit hard to comunicate wiht everybody, but in one month I improved a lot. I love speaking English, so if you try to speak with all kind of people, at the end you notice a big improvement.
