Deutsch lernen in Berlin

Last wednesday I began my second Deutsch class here in Berlin. 3 hours teaching a day for a month at the Volkhochschule (VHS) for 100 Euro. A lot cheaper than the private school I went to when I came to Berlin. The teacher is creative and the around 15 students from Europe and Asia are very nice.

Everyday I wake up to the sound of Karl Marx chanting my learning philosophy:

"Eine Sprache ist eine Waffe in Kampf des Lebens."

This actionpacked metaphor drives me forward. But so far I got a lot of work to do to sharpen my weapon (Waffe). As you can see my first written exercise is plastered with red marks:

But I won't give in until the fat lady sings.
