~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ via e-mail Novemver 2008 Is it really possible to describe what I’ve learned and experienced in Bamberg? Words fail when I think about the time I’ve spent there. All I can do is smile as I reflect… But perhaps that says it all because JOY is the overriding sentiment that comes to mind when I think of Sprachinstitut Treffpunkt: joy for learning, for people, for Bamberg, and of course, for the German language. It’s simply infectious. From the director to each of the teachers this feeling is palpable. Effort is celebrated; mistakes met with an encouraging smile. Strengths are acknowledged; weaknesses never scorned. Problems are taken care of swiftly and with individual care. The atmosphere is comfortable enough that learning simply happens, while the feeling of acceptance inspires risk taking. Excellence and hard work are enthusiastically promoted but never rigorously demanded. After all, the joy of learning must remain. Bamberg and the school have become one of the most surprisingly positive Chapters of my life. I sit here in Northern Michigan and dream about the next trip to Bamberg… no, I’m already planning the next trip! I am fully convinced that I don’t just want to return, I must return. You don’t just learn German at Sprachinstitut Treffpunkt, you catch the JOY of learning. And that is something worth returning for. See you in Bamberg.
