Hallo Michelle, Fritzi and Elke!

Have a merry Christmas! Hope to see you in the New Year!

This is my new company. But I don´t work as a Freko there. I´m just an assistant and sometimes I help my colleagues with their English and Spanish.

Didi's New Job

Maybe if I start a post, she'll tell us something about the job, or maybe even post a link to the company's website!?

New Blog

The new BLP/Freko group for 2006-7 has a blog now!

They've just started writing for an class assignment. Each one is to write something about a certain area (travel, sports, music, etc.) as if they were designing a website for young people. Take a look and comment, too, if you feel like it!

From FREKO to ESA

Hey, Michelle

Yesterday I was at a school next to Berlitz 2. Next year I will study ESA (Europasekretärin).
This takes two years. It´s the Akademie ABW. Do you know it?

Pink!?

Is something wrong with my new computer already, or did someone redecorate the blog? Hmmm...let me guess who...

GOOD JOB!

Congratulations to the new Frekos, Fritzi and Didi! I'm proud of you!

The real FREKOS

Hallo Michelle

Today we had our exam in Karlsruhe. We can proudly say that Fritzi and I have passed the oral test. That means that we are now Fremdsprachenkorrespondenten.
Fritzi said greetings to you and she will be back on the blog soon.
Now Michelle, when are we going to celebrate?

Yeah!!!

Fritzi and Didi have passed the written Freko exam!!!

How's the presentation coming?

I'll see you tomorrow, but wanted to let you know that I can come on Thursday. I'm looking forward to it!

Saturday at Elke's

A little rain didn't keep us from having a great time. Thanks for your hospitality, Elke!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

To all the Frekos for passing the FCE Exam!!! What a team!

Press release wanted!

Hi Michelle
At the moment I´m working on step into Marketing. They want me to write a press release. Could you please put an example of a press release on the blog. I don´t know how to do this.
Thank you very much and see you on saturday.

Nice weather for ducks

Hope you're enjoying your summer vacation! Here's something to brighten up the day a bit :)

Back in Germany

Hello, I'm back in country. The past week at the conference in Indianapolis was very busy and booking internet time at the hotel was very expensive so I haven't been in touch. I hope your speech/presentation course was helpful and that you've been working hard. See you tomorrow!

Hello Michelle

Fritzi and I haven´t had a chance yet to do the interpretation of the poem. We will do this as soon as possible. :-)
See you on Tuesday, bye Didi

Learning Styles

Here's a learning styles website with several tests for learning, multiple intelligence and an analytical/global thinking test. All in English.

You can take a short test in German here.

Nice little video illustration:

"Watch an example of cultural misinterpretation." This site is also the source of the glossary that was passed out in class.
