Profile
From Perth Western Australia. Name Stephen, I am Retired now. Learning Mandarin because of the love of the Culture, Food , People and the Challenge of learning a non European Language. I use Italki for the view of meeting like minded people wanting to venture into other cultures and learn more about this planet we call home. How different it can be and the language is only one part of that.

    Travel

    I went to Canal Rocks in Yalingup last weekends. It's really great, you can see the views very close. You stayed on the bridge, sometimes you will get wet. Because the wave beat the rock, it's just under the bridge. If you come to West Australia, you could plan to go down to Yalingup. It's very beautiful.

    I think your asking is British English spoken more than American English. Its an interesting question. I would have said once British English but with a large number of American Shows, American Educated Teachers and number of Chinese students going to the USA for their education I would say there could be a greater number now that speak American English than before.

    Snowy weather

    Last night, there was snow falling down after midnight in my city, it happened as the weather broadcast had said yesterday.
    It had been a long time no snow here since the it last snow fall . I had to be very cautious on my way to go to work, because it is very slippy on the ground. If I do not care am not am not careful, I could will fall down and the glasses which I am wearing could  fall off .would be thrown away.

    How would you describe your English skill?" What is the meaning of "describe" in this sentence. In this sentence it would meaning "would you have a strong understanding or weak understanding of English. Would you say that you have a good English Vocabulary and understanding of English words and sentence structures. Be able to converse with a English native speaker and would you have good listening skill to carry on a conversation in English. Also be competent in Writing English.

    What would be the 5 most asked questons a foreigner would be asked I am about to do a self introduction in the start of the new School year for Adult learners. So I ask what questions would be asked if I was going to China so as to cover that in my introductions. In Mandarin. Would any like to offer their advise as to give a 5 10minute introduction to me class as a student. I'm sure that is what the teacher will ask for all of us to do . This way she should be able to gauge the levels that everyone is at. The class consists of Basic Learners to intermediate. Look forward to the world feedback on this one.
