A few months ago i tried to admit into a local German language institute where it would have cost me 300 usd just for A1 course which is too expensive (to put into perspective - yearly tuition fee for my university is only 50 usd) .
I may not have the chance to know you personally, but wherever you are, you have my heartiest gratitude.
