Hi everyone!
I'm Keyla, a rising junior at Lawrence University with a Global Studies and German double majors. 
My decision that leads me to go to Germany started three years ago. I was enrolled in a language program to learn Japanese, but I ended up taking German because of a conflicting schedule. Having no prior knowledge with the language, after a couple grammar lessons, I actually enjoyed it very much and always looked forward to that 60-minute weekly class. Coming to college, I took German for the language requirement, but then I decided to minor in it. Now,a after two years of learning German, I am planning to make German my second major.
I am going to study abroad in Berlin this fall! By going to Berlin, I will learn hands-on about the German culture and hope to gain confidence and be fluent in speaking German. I really hope that you can help me out! Thanks!
