Hello! My name is 心生, but you can call me Tamu. I was born in the states to a Vietnamese father and Filipino mother, and have been travelling the world for work and play. Currently, I've settled down in Singapore, but my plan is to soon go back to Indonesian to start a company. Would love to learn and practice languages with you. Thanks!

The lesson with you was sooooo fun. It was so nice to share the patterns that I thought of only in my head, and it was even better because you sympathised with it and followed quickly. I already look forward to the next lesson :)

It was fun to have the Mandarin lesson with Tamu! He quickly grasped new words in my sentences and searched for the meaning online in a matter of seconds. He has a specific and clear goal to learn to read Buddist Sutras written in Chinese complicated characters. I am sure he can make progress in speaking/reading Chinese gradually in the future 😊

    It's like saying it has an advantage, in the given situation. I believe the term comes from horse races. The horse that is winning is "in the lead," meaning the are leading the pack of horses. Thus, to put someone in the lead means to put them in the winning position. To "have a lead" over someone means you are leading them, meaning you are beating them. Thus, "having a lead" is an advantageous position. To have a "healthy lead" means that your advantage is very strong, or that you are very far ahead. We do not say to have a "sick lead," (unless, it is meant in the colloquial sense, which then also means "good lead").
