Profile
I'm a college student who lived in Hunan Province, China. I love travelling but I've never been abroad before. Currently, I plan to pursue a graduate degree at the University of Toronto this September. So that would be the first time. My speaking has always been my weakness, so I'd like to practice with native speakers. That why I'm here!

Tao did a great job with meeting me today and practicing English. We targeted a few main areas of his language that could improve: the simple present -s, the simple past, and the present perfect. After I explained my views on this, however, Tao was able to do a complete 180 with regards to his simple present -s. I've never seen that happen before, so I'm curious if it's a one-time fluke or if it's something that happens when he isn't focused on using this grammar structure correctly. I pushed him pretty hard today because of his current English environment, and he reacted quite well to it (though written corrections are not his jam). Great job with keeping up with me today, Tao! I appreciate your hard work.

It was great speaking with Tao Wen again, and I notice overtime that he has become much more comfortable speaking English. We had an interesting discussion about conspiracy theories. Keep up the great work! :)

    我写这个主题是为了考试,大家可以看我的语法有什么问题吗? 在作业中,我需要用这些词造句: 好不容易,就是,瞧你,合…胃口,整整。 你们国家的饮食特点 Hoài: 小缘,你好,好久不见,最近你那里的疫情怎么样? Duyên: 金怀,你好,没事儿了,好不容易控制下来了。你那边呢,情况好些了吗? Hoài: 嗯。最近没有新增病例,但还是要注意,不能过于乐观。 Duyên: 是的。注意身体哦! Hoài: 我知道了,你也是哦。啊对了,昨天我在互联网上阅读了一篇关于 “你们国家的饮食特点”的文章。 我觉得这主题很好,因为饮食在越南的文化中有着重要的地位。 Duyên: 嗯,这主题不错。我们国家的饮食有很多特点。 Hoài: 是的。比如越南的菜很清淡,不油腻,用料简单,价格亲民,而且形式多样,特别是加入香料后让食材变得更加美味。 Duyên:另外,具我所知,还有三个特点,第一就是丰富多样的香料,一些常见的蔬菜比如香菜,罗勒(?)等等,第二是好吃和健康,第三就是美观,把菜摆成各种造型。 Hoài: 而且,越南与西方国家使用不同的工具吃饭,越南人用筷子,而他们用刀叉。此外,越南是农业大国,所以我们的主食是米饭。 Duyên: 对呀。这也和西方国家不同,他们主要吃小麦, 所以他们常把面包当早餐,而我们则有很多选择,比如:牛肉粉、鸡肉粉、粥、糯米饭......这些菜既方便又营养。 Hoài:瞧你说的这些,让我突然觉得饿了。好久没吃河粉了,以前我可以/整天/一日三餐/吃河粉。现在为了防范疫情,饭店关门,不能出去吃饭。 Duyên: 有机会我们在一起去吃好吗? Hoài: 好呀,但是太原的菜不一定合我的胃口,我觉得太甜了。啊,话说回来,南方和北方菜也有区别。 Duyên: 对呀,北方人喜欢吃咸的,南方人喜欢吃甜,辣的。太原的菜,有些菜还比较甜。 Hoài:就是。我特别讨厌菜做得甜,但是南方的菜也有特别的味道,他们常用椰子水做菜,所以有很多菜我觉得很好吃,只加一点糖就行了。 Duyên: 啊。那你能告诉我一些你的家乡有什么特产? Hoài: 我的家乡有红烧鱼、河粉,春卷,等等还有很多。那你的家乡有什么? Duyên: 我的家乡有广面,烤肉面包,这些菜都很好吃,而且你也知道,中国和韩国常用酱油而在越南你知道我们常用什么? Hoài: 鱼露,每道菜越南人都会使用鱼露,如果菜没有鱼露,就不叫越南菜。 Duyên: 是啊。鱼露对越南菜很重要。另外,你也知道,越南人的饮食观念,以前国家处于战争状态,所以经济不发达,几乎只有春节,我们才可以吃到美味的食物,但是现在经济发展了,所以我们几乎每天都能吃得好。 Hoài: 对呀,从前,只有春节才能盘高筵丰,但现在吃不仅是为了填饱肚子,更是为了享受。 Duyên: 是啊,我们可以在和平时期过得很好。当疫情过后我们顺利地一起旅行时,去学习不同省份的饮食文化。 Hoài: 好啊,有机会我们一起去,那现在时间不早了,我要去做饭,有空我们可以再聊。 Duyên: 好,再见。
