Tony enjoyed the origin story and literal translation of words. I will sure get preparation for that.

Profile
My name is Tony Oswald, I'm a native English speaker originally from Oklahoma, raised in rural Kentucky and now living in NYC. I just began studying Mandarin Chinese a month ago (or should I say 普通话吗？ - see I'm learning!) I've been predominantly using the Pimsleur method and Anki for flash cards, but am interested in mastering a stumbling conversation with real humans as I will be traveling to China in early November.

Tony started learning with me from elementary level. In fact we are learning intermediate-level lessons and he is doing so great though I was a little worried that we had to make three lessons for the first lesson text. I am glad to see that he previewed the lesson and things he learned in my class are sticking in his mind.I can feel he has the great potential to improve his Chinese in a short time, with very good accent.加油 jia1 you2(literally means "add gasoline", actually means "cheer up" )!

The lesson text was really challenging for Tony. He could copy what I was saying, but couldn't understand what I said. I feel more preparation from him for the lesson can make the lesson easier for him.

It is a long and challenging lesson text. I was glad to see that Tony take the lesson well.
