Jigba:


Have you started your language course?.

Registration at Vhs has closed but I am now in love with DW intensive course and my learning pace amazes me.

With what I have learnt so far from DW I can say that the course I paid for at the university is a waste so to say.

DW is so good. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to learn German. I used it while preparing for my entrance exam. I enjoyed their video series the most and you also get to practice what you learnt.

I've always heard that the language course offered to international students in the universities is not really that intensive.

The depression wey i have been experiencing since childhood... I'm used to it already

Moreover i live in zoogeria a.k.a depression dispenser

Yeah. I recommend it anytime any day.

I don't know why they offer those courses sef. Well basically, many people register because of credit points

You would get frustrated at some point learning the language but it's all part of the process!. Also, try to speak more. I had no German friends to practice with during my time but I practiced in my intensive course and also at home by speaking to myself basically , sounds crazy but it works, trust me!.



Ps: Having a German friend doesn't mean you will master the language. I've seen people recommend looking for a German friend as if it's easy to make friends here. Don't stress out yourself on that at all.


Also know men here who are married to German women but don't know how to speak the language .

Also know people who have lived here for decades but don't know how to speak the language.

My point is that, you only learn the language if you are really determined and motivated.

During my time, what motivated me was that I failed my placement test . The test you write to know which language course class you should be.

The director of the school consoled me that day, cause I was so angry, lol .

Imagine I didn't know what ball was called in German then . It was one of the questions in the test.

I can relate.

Learning the language is pure motivation and I know I am so motivated about it and so happy things are falling in place.

My goal this month is to follow through with the intensive lectures on DW till say A2 or B1.

Daad.de. Admission decides the city.

I spoke my last drop of German today

Some weeks back, I approached Studentenwerk(office in charge of hostel accommodation and cafeteria) for work and the cafeteria rejected me because of the language, but at the Studentenwohnheim(dorm) section, I formed German speaking for the woman oh. I was just Ja'ing, Nein'ing, kein Problem, Alles klar'ing everything she said.

Not that I didn't understand all, but the I just didn't understand most of it and I wasn't ready to lose another job because of language.

In short sha, she said she was going to send me an email, my homezone (Google translate)

She emailed me and called me(Alles klar things ) but I actually understood what she said, she was just confirming the Termin(appointment).

I was offered a position in Garden work and I was to do a 4 hours Probearbeiten (sample work) with the person I will be working with.

The Probearbeiten wasn't funny at all, I rugged everything with the man oh, we die here. But I was surprised I understand 80% of everything he was saying and the man was super nice. I sha worked 5 free hours that day (50 euros at least should have been paid )

A lot of long stories happened in between sha and I was skeptical about taking the job, aber (but) I just went to the man to confirm the work for me today with we die here attitude.

A very nice German friend sent me some few phrases to practice for the man because the man was complaining to her about not speaking German well, and she told me to practice a lot of words, but I didn't just practice, what will be will be I told myself. No need faking what I don't know.


The man and I dragged it today oh, I was sha understanding him, but I just pitied him because after speaking his long phrase I only pick fragments and join them in my head . At a point, he had to start using Google translate to converse with me in English.

I stood my grounds and said that I tried nah, I am just few months here and I could understand him

Well I passed his stage and I have paperworks(they too like plenty paper here) to fill and move to the final stage to know if I get the job or not.

Dw.de website of a German media house with different German learning materials.

Yes it is expensive, thanks to the foreign exchange.
Just learn every little thing you can learn in Nigeria and come to DE to perfect it.

In olamide's voice.....UPDATE UPDATE

Frankfurt that I normally enter and exit with palava is now given me real issues.

I am stuck in Frankfurt, every train leading to my direction is canceled and I need to pick up something at home and head out again, I don't know what to do now .

All I can do is watch and cry in Adele's voice
