She helped me not only learn, but to appreciate the culture and language. The German language courses are great for anyone considering learning a new language and I would highly recommend. I’d hate to see these options disappear.

In fact, because of my new proficiency in the language, I felt confident enough to move to Dusseldorf, Germany on a working holiday visa. It was one of the best experiences I have had and it was thanks to the teaching of German by Daniella Gatto at MacEwan University. To take such opportunities away from other students would be absurd.
