German Schools

It might seem easy to find a German course in a language school in a city like Berlin. However, it was a very difficult task since the first challenge was to find an available spot for me. I needed to find a language school that could fit my schedule as an Au Pair, that was not too far away from where I lived, that was affordable, and a place that had enthusiastic teachers so I could be motivated to actually try to discover and learn the fascinating, but almost impossible language. I tried four different places before I was able to find my best solutions: Kapitel Zwei. After attending many different classes, meeting many different teachers and reading a lot of textbooks, just before I was about to give up, I found this interesting and different place that seemed to be quite nice and fitting to what I was looking for. What really caught my attention was the fact that it was at Alexanderplatz, it was the place that opened my eyes to the city and now it was becoming the place that opened my eyes to the German language. When I first visited the place, I felt like it was just the right one for me so I took the risk of taking classes one more time to give it another chance. I was so surprised, when I started my classes in Kapitel Zwei because I stopped being just a random name and the weird ‘Au Pair girl’. Then, I realized that I was actually learning and that this place was offering me so much more. When I got here, it was my first time attending only a language school so it was kind of exciting at the beginning, because I was going to be able to focus all my attention into only one thing: learning German. However, the excitement did not last long. But when I started attending classes here, I was able to meet new people and people that where there to have fun and learn. My attitude towards learning German became so much better then. It is hard to find a place where you feel completely comfortable while learning, and specially being in a foreign country. But once you find it, everything becomes fantastic.
