Hello from Germany
From participating in the seminar "Working, Studying, and Living in Germany," it was an impressive activity. The discussions provided information and sources about working and studying, which sparked my interest in continuing to work in the field of the German language. Personally, having had the opportunity to study a language course at the Goethe Institute, I felt more inclined to pursue a career in the German language. This field is challenging, offers diverse career paths, and is as important to my life as English.
I am very impressed with the activities of the AMIF project. I gained knowledge in many aspects, including daily life, job hunting, and working in Germany, etc. Beyond listening to lectures, having discussions and exchanging ideas with like-minded people significantly boosted my confidence in going to Germany. I hope such activities continue to be organised.
Throughout the time I studied German from level A1 to B1 at the Goethe Institute, I participated in many activities. For example, seminars on pursuing Ausbildung in Germany, aspects of German culture and lifestyle, and my favorite, the German cooking activity. Not only did I get to cook and taste the dishes, but I also learned about various ingredients and cooking methods in German. All these activities helped me gain a deeper understanding of German culture, practice the German language learned in the classroom, meet friends from different language levels, and obtain essential information for further studies or living in Germany.
I learned the language at Goethe-Institut Thailand in order to further my nursing career in Germany, so I studied up to B2. Frankly speaking, all skills I acquired (listening, speaking, reading, and writing) can fully satisfy the needs of daily life in Germany, for examplelistening to the announcements in various places such as train stations, listening to patients and medical care team and reading patient information. Besides, it is so practical when writing e-mails (especially complaint e-mails) because in Germany, most appointments are made through emails. I feel that the teaching system at Goethe really meets the needs of living in Germany.
