Online course German A2 from January 2nd, 2023
December 20, 2022Webpinoy
On January 2nd, 2023 an online course German A2 will start again. For those who have already completed their A1 course, there is now the opportunity to take the next level and expand their knowledge of German.
You shouldn’t wait too long after successfully completing an A1 German course and it’s better to continue straight away with an A2 course, because this improves your German skills and prevents you from forgetting a lot again during a longer break from learning for months. This is also the reason why German authorities usually do not recognize a certificate for longer than 12 months, for example for visa purposes.
Our online course A2 lasts about 8 weeks and takes place Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. GMT+8 and includes a total of 120 hours of instruction. The course fee is 24,000 Philippine Pesos.
A prerequisite is a completed German A1 course. Participation can be done from any country as long as there is a stable internet connection. Zoom and Google Classroom and Kahoot are used. Participation with a smartphone is possible, but a tablet or computer is recommended.

Facebook Giraffe Riddle
November 1, 2013Webpinoy
If you’ve spent any time on Facebook in the past day or so, you may be wondering: What’s up with all the giraffes? It’s a riddle. But there’s a problem. An argument. Seems social media can’t decide what’s the right answer. Is it door or eyes?
For those of you who don’t know what is it all about, here’s the riddle again:
“It’s 3 a.m., the doorbell rings and you wake up. Unexpected visitors! It’s your parents and they are here for breakfast. You have strawberry jam, honey, wine, bread and cheese. What is the first thing you open?”
Aftershocks
October 30, 2013Webpinoy
It should be a long weekend. I came back from school on Saturday as a German teacher and was looking forward to report for work next on Wednesday only. On the night of Monday to Tuesday I suddenly felt very bad. I immediately thought of a food poisoning, because we had eaten fish in the evening. That was not a nice imagination, because I knew of such a food poisoning that can persist for several weeks. A few years ago I had experienced such a poisoning, and it took me two weeks to get back on my feet again. So I was hoping that there is something else and I can recover from on the following Tuesday.
On Tuesday was no work because it was a holiday (a Muslim holiday that was declared as a national holiday in the Philippines). In the morning I struggled out of bed, because my family was already up. It was about 7 am, and I was pretty broken through the sleepless night. After a diet breakfast for the sick I thought: Fortunately, today is a holiday. So I go right back to bed and I can hopefully recover.
