so today i went to my first class. i actually had three today but could only go to one because during the other two i had to go to an italian placement exam. i think i did alright on this.
anyways about my first class it was quite an experience.. !
me and my friend manu signed up for the same class because it interested us both, it was the class filosofia della cultura (philosophy of culture..obviously?)
so we go to the room and there is NO ONE. class is posted to start at 9 the light is off its a few minutes after nine and no students are around. finally we knock on the prof's office door and go in. he said just wait a few more minutes and we will start
so then we wait and the professor comes and we go inside. still it is only me and manu. the classroom is small with a round table for socrates style teaching (i think?)
the teacher is a rather small italian man wearing trendy clothes- fitted jeans, asics shoes (very popular here), and a collared polo shirt with the collar POPPED. he spoke with us very casually and it ended up being only me and manu so for my first class i was lucky to be able to have things clarified and he spoke more slowly for us. the class was off to a pretty good start i found it interesting although some things were a little uclear i generally understood everything since he was going slow and is italian!
tomorrow i will have more classes to show for!
that's so great that it worked out so well! that class sounds cool--keep me posted on anything interesting you learn in it! i can't wait to here about your other classes.
ReplyDeletealso, eat risotto!! and then tell me about it.
Oh, so I'm supposed to "pop" the collar of my shirt? I'll be the only stylish guy at work tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteGlad the class was good. Hope the other classes are equally fun. Moon says Hi!
That sounds great, Roxanne! I look forward to hearing about your other classes, too. I wonder if your classes will be really small?
