Wow. It's been a while since I've posted here, and I can't think of a better reason to return than to share some incredible news from my students.
I am absolutely thrilled to announce that four of my dedicated Mandarin students have just received their IGCSE results! 🎉
• 3 students achieved an A*! (A Plus)
• 1 student achieved an A!
These four wonderful individuals each have unique personalities and learning styles. But through these years of working together, we’ve all learned a great deal from one another.
As their coach, I am immensely proud of their hard work. These fantastic results are the fruit of our mutual dedication and consistent effort.
The biggest reward for me? The fact that three of them have chosen to continue their Mandarin journey with me even after their exams! Some are advancing to higher HSK levels, while others are diving into practical, everyday Mandarin to enhance their real-life communication.
It is a true privilege to be part of their learning journey. Congratulations again to all of them! 太棒了!

I am so pleased to announce that both my students did so well in their IGCSE Mandarin as a foreign language exam! Mr. Cheeky D from HELP International School got 98/100 (A*) and Ms. Steady C from elc International school got 91/100 (A). Congratulations to both of you! I hope that the Chinese language will be of use and help to you two as well in future!

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!
( Click in the photos to learn about two of the legends which explain the tradition of eating mooncakes.)
The Mid-Autumn Festival is held on the fifteenth day of the eighth month of the Chinese lunar calendar, on a full moon day.
Nowadays, the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is also a harvest festival, has become a family holiday like Thanksgiving. Here in Malaysia, the Chinese celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival by having a large dinner with family, worshipping the moon with gifts and taking part in the lantern parade. Children have fun carrying various lanterns and running about the streets.
Do you celebrate Mid-Autumn festival?

My very first DIY voice recording and video making (by Albert Lou). This is a children's poem by a Taiwanese children literature writer, 陈木城。While sparking children's imagination, it exudes warmth and simplicity.

一支瘦瘦的电线杆说
我的手牵着你的手
瘦瘦的电线杆说
让我也牵着你的手
一支电线杆说
大家手牵手
从乡村到城市
手牵手
从城市到乡村
夜,就亮了
灯，柔柔的
暖暖的
照着

The world is our true classroom. Distance learning has indeed sped things up. Teachers need to grasp the essence of Apps like Meet, Classroom, Quizizz, Screencastify, Jamboard, Whiteboard, just to name a few, in a very short period of time. The good side is learning is now made possible anytime, anywhere.
