...after years away from the language. I knew I was rusty, but yikes! I have a lot more gaps in my vocabulary than I realized and attempting to “think in French” made my head literally ache.

I had my first class today
1 day ago
I am excited to be pursuing something academic again! :)
The teacher made a good first impression. He seems to be fairly engaging, as he managed to avoid boring us or droning at us while going over the usual first day stuff like the syllabus and classroom rules. Hopefully he will continue to be this interesting in the coming months. Ultimately though, I am determined to complete this goal, so I’m not going to let the teacher’s style make or break the course for me.
Followed through...
