Adios a Metropol

overcast 27 °C

Three months has gone so quickly. Things are starting to draw to a close, including Max’s Spanish classes. Max has been learning Spanish for the whole time we have been here and all except for the first 2 weeks has been at the Metropol language school. He has gone from zero Spanish to intermediate level and has gained a lot of confidence.

Lately, he has often been in the position of showing visiting family and friends around Barcelona and having to be the local guide and translator. I think it has made him realise that he actually knows how to say things, get around by metro or buses and is familiar with the way things work here. It is just a shame that we have to go now.

The atmosphere at the school is friendly and he has now met people from all over the world - Germany, England, America, Italy, Canada, Hungary, Finland, Switzerland, Malaysia and China. This has opened his eyes a bit about other countries and he has enjoyed making friends with so many different people.

Thanks Raquel for your teaching and help. We will never forget ‘NI FU NI FA’.

Max!
I mean .... how will you ever pass your NSW school certificate doing such basic things as speaking Spanish, being a tour guide around Barcelona, understanding Spanish history and learning and understanding things beyond the importance of the English colonisation of NSW???
Don't worry I'll talk with Mr Brown!
