Renate (Tuesday, Advanced English Course)

It was my first time using Skype. Tracy helped me to install and set things up as well as have a test run. It is helpful to familiarise oneself with Skype a bit but after some headset issues (one should try this before the lesson) we were able to have a wonderful virtual course! It is not the same as face to face but almost! I am very happy that we can continue the courses in this way, it is a wonderful opportunity and I am already looking forward to our meeting next week!

Ursula (Tuesday, Advanced English Course)

According to a recommendation by Tracy, our English teacher, today we had our first lesson via Skype. It was a challenge for me, because never before I have used this communication medium and I had no idea whether I could get along with it, but I wanted to try out. I downloaded Skype on my laptop, entered my Skype name, email address and password - and there it was. Thanks to Tracy - she was helpful and patient during the lesson - it turned out to be successful.

Of course, it is not the same as in the classroom of the institute, but in the times of Corona Virus, it is a very good alternative to sitting at home, doing nothing.

Sometimes we had interrupted talks, and I couldn’t figure out why, (was it due to the microphone, the internet connection or anything else?) but we are working on it and I am sure we will improve. You should use headphones (those of mobile phones are fine) and should not move too much. This can help to improve the conversation via Skype.

I am really glad that Tracy’s idea to use Skype turned out to be a good solution to go on with the English lessons as long as Corona Virus has us all in hand.

It was a very interesting new experience to learn English from home and keep going our course. Without any stress on the highway, in a home atmosphere, we used the time very intensive to speak English, to gossip, to meet virtually in our home with skype. I enjoyed every second 😊.

It was a great experience today meeting each other in the digital world and doing the course via skype! I think it worked perfectly, not less efficient than usually and I wonder why we didn’t have the idea earlier….
