Talks Around the Coffee Cups

Ep.14 Coffee with Mike “Get the tone right. (Mandarin Chinese)”


Listen Later

I have bought a textbook to learn Chinese, decades ago. (and felt it’s impossible to learn!) 

Mike has been my (very very VERY patient) Dutch teacher nearly a year now. Interesting about us is that he has been in Taiwan with speaking Mandarin Chinese fluently, and me in the Netherlands with my little Dutch. Just as opposite. We often talk about the East Asian language, cultures, as well as Dutch (Europe) cultures. It’s really interesting that we are someone who are something “between” the totally different cultures and languages. Let’s see the language which I felt like “impossible to learn”.

 *Another virtual coffee meeting!

Thank you Mike, for such a fun chat, and always being so good teacher!
