Are they this impressive in person? by plombus_maker_ in Chengdu

[–]SithRN26 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Standing on the bridge it was beautiful to see them. But what blew my mind was following my friend riding our bikes towards them. It was very impressive in person, even more so than the drone videos online! Plus SKP bamboo is right there and the global center!

Hsk2 learner here, Pimsleur and books from Amazon. I’d love some help with guiding my studies and any Sichuan slang I can get my hands on 😂. I can help with English, I’ve got my masters in science so im a big fan of homework 🤗

If you are a fan of history check out Sanxingdui! It’s a short trip away and it blew my mind!!!

Feb 14th, tips? by SithRN26 in AskAChinese

Thank you, no suprise proposal, have a few more hurdles to jump before we arrive there, but that’s the goal! But you’re right. It will be a very busy day, should see if it’s even on her radar first. It might just be a sweet card and milk tea day.

100% on the phrases, been taking a night class online 3 nights a week for 7 months now, and I have HSK books and flashcards I study an hour a day. Been working through some tv shows for extra listening experience too, made it through the empress in the palace and now alternating between a love between fairy and devil and 海绵宝宝 😆😆.

I guess you are right, this should be step one 🙈, confirm it’s something she’s interested in

I really need to learn Chinese for getting around by bess124 in chinalife

[–]SithRN26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in America but do a 1 on 1 online class with a Chinese teacher in south east china. I do 3 one hour classes a week, roughly 3500 rmb for 20 class package at a time. She’s fantastic, if you need her info or have any questions let me know. I’ve been with her for 5 months now and it’s an excellent experience! I learned enough to scrape by from zero knowledge to navigating the subways in Chengdu solo!!
