    I’ve got 3 days left for my class, so I’m beginning to work on my self study again.

    Gramattik Aktiv feels the right level. The early exercises are easy for me but still useful. Being in 100% German makes it feel very efficient for german learning.

    I’m maybe 80% memorized the song ,Mein bester Freund’'. https://youtu.be/A1I4GStK3Cw , pretty easy song so might as well start singing right?

    The “Deshalb kampf’ ich jetzt” was the difficult part to get my tongue fast enough to say, in the last verse. Otherwise it’s all pretty easy!

    I didn’t actually do a lot of study this week, but the Dutch language discord I am in opened an irc channel for people who don’t like using discord! Very happy to see it.

    I visited a museum today. They had audio guides available. I found they had a guide in a “easy” version of German.

    I am so happy they had the easy (leicht Sprache) guide. I managed to understand about half of the sentences and got some nice in-context listening practice.

    I also started listening to some B1 German YouTube conversational videos and I’m doing okay at times.

    I’ve also got a Scratch Programming book in German. It’s written to elementary school level and it’s great for simple technical language, which is a speciality that I’m going to need soon. Very nice stuff to work with.
