Acutally I don't know what I expected. Many people say they don't do Erasmus because they are afraid to get bad marks or that it is not possible that the courses are credited. I always though, who cares? It will work somehow! You just have to learn the content of the course and the language will work somehow as well because the profs know that you are not a native speaker. So don't worry and just do it because it's an awesome experience and everything!
But after 9 months and 2 exams I can say: I was wrong! It all depends on the prof. And I wasn't so lucky with mine. I mean come on you just can't apply the same standarts with italians and non-italians neither in an oral exam, nor in a written one! Gosh, I'm angry! Maybe it's because none of the profs is able to speak a foreign language! Professor!!! In a university!!! How is that possible I ask myself? No wonder they don't appreciate foreigners speaking their language because most of them don't even know what it means to speak a foreign language! You are coming here, living abroad and in the beginning your italian isn't perfect. Nearly nobody speaks your language (of course not!) and most of the people are not even able to speak english!!! World language! And of course it's always the fault of others: The school, the teachers, the education system in Italy. But learning a language is exhausting! It's nothing that comes from alone, it's work and I fucking demand from them that they at least appreciate it a bit!
There are as well the profs who give directy the best marks, that's not what I'm asking for! It's not fair either. But at least give someone a mark which is ok when the content of the answers was right. That's all I'm asking for.
So you see: Erasmus and living abroad is not just fun. Somtimes it's so frustrating! But at least I can say: Now I have holidays! Just two exams in june and july to go and I fucking will enjoy this summer here! Tomorrow Pisa and Lucca! Can't wait! :D
