For example I participated in an Italian-course three years ago. Of course, when the year was over, I wished to go on. But there was no further course for people who were learning the second year. Instead there was another beginner-course, but with another teacher, so I participated in there, too. The problem is, that this was the only oportunity for me to participate in a free Italian-course. The once in public schools cost a lot, and I can#t afford it.
Do you have the oportunity to do voluntary language courses?

Hi there. Yes, now I'm taking Italian and fortunately I'm taking it for free, I mean if it hadn't cost me I still would've been able to pay for it anyways, but apparently they let me take the course for free since I'm blind. These are the advantages of being a blindie! Hahahaha! And as for my English, I took it in highschool but to be honest, their English coursses weren't good at all, so they just taught me to make simple and stupid questions such as, what's your name? where are you from? and other stupidities like those. Then I happened to be lucky enough to live in the US for a year, and that's where my English made great progress. It was a 24/7 class, so I learned it pretty quickly while being there. And oh yeah, my first gf was an american, so there was even another reason to learn English quite quickly! Smile. Well, that's the story of how I learned the languages I know. Oh and besides knowing English, I speak a bit of Italian, and I know Spanish since I live in Mexico and it's our official language. Take care all, JoaquĆ­n

Well, the good thing is that English is taught in Germany and every student has to do that. This is great. You're learning Italian? Great, I love that language.

And we also learn French or latin, but this is a dad language (at least I think so).
