2016, we are coming! We spent lots of funny time with Italki teachers. I tried Italki firstly then my daughter and my son learn from here. I had no difficulty to "open my mouse" without too many days learning. I truly practiced and used English not just only learning here. Italki teachers gave me a big help on teaching my children English when I gave them homeschooling in Beijing. My daughter, Diana, had a big jump from textbook-style English to English-in use, so she had a really American pronunciation when she came to Albuquerque and I think this is why her adapting beyond of our expect to new school , but she is still lack of vocabulary. My son’s English is not only from online teachers but also from his American school, he does get profit from English environment. As a result of 3-4 months online study from Italki teachers in Beijing, He cannot read the 26 letters of alphabet and just say “Hi, Hello, I am John, I am six years old” as well as a few of color and animal words, but Leaving from Beijing and came to Albuquerque, he becomes more understanding and responding on his italki classes and his English learning pace is added by twice every day. I am thankful to Italki and all of our teachers. Diana will stop to learn online, but John and I still learn here. Wish John read books by himself someday, and wish Nina(me) reach her academic English till April. Cheer up, we are coming 2016!
