«I thoroughly enjoyed the German language course offered during this summer school. Professor Mariya structured the course in a way that was both rich and engaging, and it was incredibly educational as well. Despite being three hours long, each session felt perfectly timed, and I never found myself bored. We covered a lot in every class, including grammar, vocabulary, short essays, and cultural videos about topics like the Berlin Wall and Germany’s Tresor. There were also exercises to help reinforce what we learned, and the group discussions and presentations at the end of each session were varied and beneficial. The pacing was well-managed, and I encountered many new and unfamiliar things that made the course stimulating.»
