My New Class
I switched school classes last week. My new class is a pure conversation and listening class, which is exactly what I needed. Now I'm with the Korean class (the university usually separates the Western students from the Korean students, as different text books and learning styles are used). It's extra challenging, as the teacher and the text books do not use any English. Reading characters is stressed and used over the phonetic alphabet. It will be a work out, but should be good. And today they added two more students, so now there are two Koreans, two Japanese, one Mongolian, one Hungarian, and me. We chit chat in Chinese because it's our only common language!
