I'm a simple emigrant and I study German in courses

There's this thing called Integration Courses, but they're not for those who come here for work or study. Mostly they're sent to employed partners, late-arriving migrants, or refugees. These are language courses that are partially funded by the state. In addition, if a student has high attendance and passes the exam successfully, the state refunds 50% of the cost back as a bonus. But if you work, then pay for it yourself. In fact, that's not exactly right: a working person can even get a referral to Integration Courses regardless of salary. To do this you need to apply to the Migration Office, say that you really need it, and then they may give you a referral, or they may not. I got such a referral, and a wide range of schools opened up to me where I could go to study German for only €2.29 per hour. Next you have to go to any school and take a placement test so they determine which level to send you to. I was right in my self-assessment:; according to the results of the assessment they immediately sent me to prepare for taking the B1 exam (Module 6). I decided that it would be better for me to go for B1.1 (Module 5) to brush up my grammar, otherwise it would stay a gap forever. Next I chose a school and started going to classes; I was lucky that waiting for a suitable group didn't take long at all. So far I like everything; we have an interesting teacher and a good group. I thought it would be much harder for me to juggle all this. It turned out to be not difficult at all, although classes run from Monday to Thursday for three hours plus in the evenings. It's good that it's already warm and daylight lasts longer, that definitely helps. And you, do you study foreign languages? #useful #language
