My Gym in Munich

Hi everyone, this is Juhee!

I have other very useful information for you to have a healthy life in Munich.

These days the weather was too cold and windy so I haven’t worked out.

I felt like I gained some weight, so I searched for places to workout.

Finally, I found three places. Actually it is very easy to find them because in Germany lots people keep their body fit and eat lots of healthy food. I really like that I can get Bio food and vegetarian food easily.

So there are three places I can go to but I chose to go to Fit Star.

There are a few reasons that I chose Fit Star, but the most important thing for me, is that it is close to where I live.

I live nearby Hauptbahnhof so I compared Body & Soul, Mc-Fit, and Fit-Star.

Fit-Star and Mc-Fit are very good options.

However, Mc-fit doesn’t have free Wi-Fi, drinks, or a calf massage machine.

Fit-Star has Free Wi-Fi, a calf massage machine, and you can pay extra to get coffee or other drinks.

Even though Mc-fit is better quality, I like to go to Fit Star for the calf massage machine.

I am really looking forward to joining their Zumba dance class as well!

It’s all included in the monthly bill.

So If you want to work out after Deutsch class, you should check it out.

It takes 20 minutes to walk there from Deutsch Akademie.

If you don’t want to walk, you can take tram NO.20 or 21 at Karlsplatz or Hauptbahnhof to Fit-Star.

I hope you guys enjoy to spending time in Munich. Thank you!

Last day of class

Hi everyone, this is Juhee!

Today is the final day of our A1/2 course!

I thought a four-week course is too short, but it was not. Actually the time went really fast!

I met other students from many different countries in my class.

The thing that I liked the most in our German class was that I learned a lot of new vocabulary, the future tense, and how to use basic grammar for speaking.

It was fun to speak in German with classmates and we shared what we do after class or before we got to Germany.

It helped us get to know each other and we could share information about traveling and our hobbies too.

I brought some chocolates to share with classmates because when I read German it was hard for me to pronounce, but they helped me speak the right way and were very patient.

I had to work so I couldn’t stay until we finished the last class but we all shared our contact numbers and made a group chat to meet for coffee sometime soon.  

I really enjoyed writing about Deutsch Akademie and I will sign up for the next level, so maybe I can meet you guys in person at some point.

I think I made a really good decision to join Deutsch Akademie to learn German.

It is really a great location, the teacher was really friendly, and all the staff were very helpful.

I hope you guys enjoy Deutsch Akademie and Germany too!

Thank you!

Life in Munich

Hi everyone, this is Juhee!

Today I want to talk about where I live in Munich.

I also want to talk about the kinds of transportation you can take in Munich.

Actually I live in the middle of Munich. I think I am really lucky to have my place.

I live two minutes away from the main station called Hauptbahnhof and it takes me 10 minutes to walk to Deutsch Akademie.

Also, I am posting about the Oberpollinger building because that is where I work. It’s a luxury department store.

It is kind of fancy so most of the customers are tourists. I don’t have to speak German for work, but

I decided to study German because some of our customers are German and don’t speak English.

Also, I like to learn languages. If you want to go to Oberpollinger, you can get off at Karlsplatz, Marienplatz, or

Hauptbahnhof station. All of them take five minutes to walk there. It is also five minutes from our Deutsch Akademie too.

If you want to shop for make up, hand bags, or clothes you should go after class and check it out.

Sometimes we have promotions and sales.

I hope it helps you guys enjoy life in Munich.

Where can I go get glasses in Munich?

Hello everyone!

This is Juhee again. Today I want to share some very useful information with you.

Recently I noticed that I could not read the board during German class. Since I read and use my smart phone a lot, my

eyesight had gotten worse. I needed to get glasses. I heard that glasses are very expensive in Europe, especially in

Munich. I asked my classmates who wear glasses and they gave me a really good tip!

There is a store called Ace & Tate and there are lots of frames that you can try on. It cost me 98 Euros for the frames and

the lens. Ace & Tate is fairly close to Deutsch Akademie. If you want, you can walk there. It takes 30 minutes.

 If you don’t want to walk, take the U6 subway line from Marienplatz to Universität Station.

The staff at Ace & Tate is very kind and helpful. I ordered my glasses and had to wait 7 to 14 days to get them.

They send you an email then you can go and pick them up.

I didn’t check my eyesight there but you can check it if you need to. Also Ace & Tate is right next to the University.

There are lots of restaurants and coffee shops where you can hang out.

I hope this information is helpful for people who need to get glasses in Munich.

If you are in a hurry for Breakfast before class! :)

Hello Everyone! ;)

Today I want to tell you about a grocery store.This place is called ALDI. It is very close to Deutsch Akademie.

They have bread and coffee for sale!

Sometimes if I feel hungry and want to grab something to eat between breaks, I run to ALDI and buy some fruit or energy drinks to have as a snack.

There are so many choices to get that are super cheap and delicious! Actually cheaper than any other grocery store. I hope this information helps you guys start a day well before German class!

Where do you want to go for coffee or a drink in Munich? :)

This place is called Cotidiano! It is really close to Deutsch Akademie. When I want to have lunch or some coffee with friends I usually go here. My favorite food is grilled salmon with Salad and Johannisberry juice (mixed with water). I go here very often after class or whenever I want to meet friends.

This place is really cozy and sometimes it is very sunny. Also lots of  young fashionable people come here to eat or drink.

The most important part is that all the foods are very fresh and AMAZING!!!

I have a lot of vegetarian and vegan friends in Munich and they also love to eat at Cotidiano because they serve vegetarian food like salad bowls and pizza.

Also, if you are not vegan you can still eat a steak sandwich and other dishes with meat. After eating or drinking you can walk to Marienplatz or Kalsplatz to shopping or just walk around. I hope lots of people try Cotidiano and have a good time. :)

Learning German is fun!

Let us know what you have experienced together. :)

Today in class we learned about the past tense !

We talked about meeting friends and how we spend our leisure time with them.  We asked questions in German like “Did you meet friends at DeutschAkademie?” and “If yes – do you spend your leisure time with them?” We practiced making natural sentences in the past tense describing what we did. We also talked about our experiences before we lived in Germany and the hobbies that we like to do. We practiced asking and answering these questions. This lesson prepared to me share more about my experiences using the past tense. This class not only prepared me to communicate in German, but it also to know more about people from other countries. Like Italy, America, Australia, France, Korea and Russia. We are very looking forward to meet tomorrow in the class at DeutschAkademie.

Learning German is fun! What we learned at Deutsch Akademie Today! :)

My teacher is like to teach very enthusiastically.

Today we learned about new vocabulary, Korperteile (Body Parts) and Die Zeit (Time).

die Gegenwart (the present), die Vergangenge (the past) and

die Zukuftthe (the future).

I was able to learn many new words.

Let’s look at a simple example.

Ich mache eine Pizza. (The present)

Ich habe eine Pizza gemacht. (the past)

Main stain in Munich. It’s call Hauptbahnhof station.

You can walk from Hauptbahnhof station to Deutsch Akademie in 10mints.

It is really good location to go to learn German and drinking coffee after Class!

Learning German is fun! Deutsch Akademie’s Basic information :)

We have 12 course levels for a better grading

12 course levels enable an accurate and individual assessment process.

And I am in A2/2.

My Germany Class is start from 8:30am – 11:30am.

Also My class mates are 11. It is very small group. So you will have considerably more opportunity to speak
