I am a grandmother in my 60s and I have taken up learning languages later in life. I am very interested in Mandarin because it so different from English and although I have studied it for a few years find it difficult to speak On a recent holiday in France I decided I would also like to learn French, starting at beginner level. I am a retired English teacher and have taught English language in Australia, Britain and China, so I can help with all aspects of English learning. I am happy to have short chats in Chinese or French and English with people of any age.
