In my country (Hungary, but I saw similar attitude in Germany as well) its not unusual to learn entirely from the lecture material (own notes or provided script and assignments) without any textbook. Some people do get a book from the library, but it's not really expected from you.

my original comment before editing said book/teacher. I use them interchangeably, but I hope the message is still there. Namely: Is it a difficult subject or do you need a better teacher?
