Subject name: German Language and Culture
What did you learn in this subject? The German language
What is the teaching style? Depending on what level you take, generally there are quite a few in class and take home tasks along with mid-sems and finals. However, all are very relaxed and not so stressful.
What did you like/dislike most about this subject? The teacher and the small nature of the class. This enables you to learn more and also makes it more interactive, which is something you need for a language.
Would you recommend it to other students? Why? Definitely - even if you're not doing International Studies, it's worth learning as you'll be surprised as to how much you'll actually learn with each level and also the classes are heaps of fun. Very different to the serious nature of others subjects.
