Goal of our next Monday 8 Pm class:
 Du muesch vorsichtig fahre. You need to drive safely. Bräms chli ab! Slow down! Ich fahre nid so schnäll. I’m not going that fast. Jessesgott, lueg uf d Schtross! Look on the road. Beruig di, Schätzeli. Es isch alles i Ornig. Calm down, honey. Everything is OK. Hesch d Liechtsignal gseh? Si sind scho orangsch gsi. Did you see the traffic lights? They were already orange. Nur kei Panik. Es isch nonig rot gsi. Do not panic. It wasn’t red yet. Pass uf d Fuessgänger uuf! Watch out for the pedestrians! Klar, Schätzeli. I will, honey.  For more advanced students we have a Zoom speaking practice every Monday at 9 pm. Today we will we will discuss some of the questions below: Fahrsch du gärn chli z schnäll? Wie findsch du d Fahrkultur i de Schwiiz? Wo fahrsch lieber: I de Schwiiz oder i-mene andere Land? Wiso? Hesch du scho einisch e Buess übercho? Was für es Auto hesch im Momänt? Do you speak of your feelings? Do you like to reflect on them? Or do you try to suppress them? I remember how until some recent years, I believed that I could only be smiley and happy- go- lucky all the time. We all know that it’s not humanly possible. We’ve received the gift of different emotions for a reason. And of course it all starts with the right mindset. The more you try to suppress a feeling the higher the chance to feel more more misery. Asking self reflective questions such as "Why do I feel this way?" helps us to tune in with ourselves. Let's not be afraid of what we feel. Oue next live lesson will be about a "cute cat". You can try the course here for 30 days free of charge.  Was isch nid guet? What’s wrong? Nüüt, Mami. Nothing, mom. Bisch sicher? Are you sure? Jo. Ich bi sicher. Yes, I am sure. Bisch truurig? Are you sad? Wie goht s i de Schuel? How is it going at school? Ich ha-n-e guete Tag gha i de Schuel. I had a good day at school. Wiso bisch denn truurig? So why are you sad? Alli mini Fründne hend Huustier. All my friends have pets. Und ich möchti au eis. And I want one too.  Es isch so schön, es Chätzli z ha. It’s so nice to have a cat. Jetz bi-n-i nümm truurig. I’m not sad anymore. Ich liebe mis Büseli. I love my cat. Es isch so lieb. He’s so friendly. Es isch so energisch. He’s so energetic. Es isch so weich und kuschelig. And he’s so fluffy.

Ich weiss, ich mues go poschte. I know. I need to go grocery shopping. Ich cha das für dich mache. I can do that for you. Ich goh noch de Schuel. I’ll go after school. Ne-nei, das isch nid nötig. Ich cha das guet sälber mache. No-No, that’s not necessary. I can do that well on my own. Have you ever been in this sticky situation, where you had to explain your way out of it? Sometimes we find ourselves to be at a wrong place at a wrong time.It’s good to know some useful questions that can help you identify the situation a bit better. In today’s lesson you will learn:
