Tonight is my 10th Mandarin lesson with my latest student, and I’m psyched!
My student has been absolutely incredible. Her pronunciation has improved in leaps and bounds, she’s learned so much about Chinese culture, and she’s picking up a good amount of vocabulary – characters and pronunciation!
It’s not really a news update or a country profile, but I’m so proud of her I and I wanted to share it. Our lessons have given me a point of sanity in this lockdown craziness, and seeing her progress has been brilliant.
God, teenage me hated the idea of becoming a teacher. But these lessons are actually really enjoyable.
