School´s Out

Today was my last day of language school. I wish I had been sad to leave, but given the problems with the school, I can´t say this. The final day was especially frustrating because they pulled many of the professors out of the classes for a special meeting. I had to spend my final day with a boring teacher who was not accustomed to teaching more advanced levels rather than my normal outstanding professor. It was the last of the death by 1,000 cuts.

I still can´t believe I spent 12 weeks and over 200 hours learning the language with the school! I´ve progressed a lot, but still have a long way to go. I´m not sure if this gives you any idea of the enormity of learning a language, but it can be quite overwhelming. I completed Avanzado Superior and feel superior and inadequate at the same time. Everyone keeps telling me that I speak very well for having lived her only 3 months. This really helps keep me going.
