“A variety of teachers, effective teaching methods – particularly for verb conjugation; for me, it was the past tenses.
A visit to the museum was a really good experience; although there was a lot I didn’t understand, it was a highlight of the week.”
A visit to the museum was a really good experience; although there was a lot I didn’t understand, it was a highlight of the week.”
“1. No group; I was on my own for two days, then spent two days with another participant, starting at 11.30 (for half the time).
2. There was an extra hour every day from Monday to Thursday, as the rooms had to be reserved for exams on Friday; but four hours a day is already a lot, and adding another hour on top of that really took it out of me.”
