Shanghai World Expo

Better City Better Life

Video: Explore World Expo with Robert L. Kuhn promo

It was my wife Lakshmi who first awakened me to the beauty of China.

Apart from the confidence that I saw at the Expo, what impressed me the most during this visit was the increasing spirituality of the Chinese people. An ancient civilization, this is the land that protected the teachings of the Buddha when they were under threat in India.

Today, China can be said to be the heart of the Buddhist world, a truth that is demonstrated in the many temples and pagodas that are coming up all across the country. It is this mixture of spiritualism with the practicality of the Expo that has made the Chinese people heroes!(China Daily)

There is only ONE WAY to learn a new language

YOU HAVE TO SPEAK IT!!!

I (Graeme, Ed of Kaixin with Xiaosui) am a mature age adult and I have never been good a learning a language.

I studied online for 5 years and I knew a LOT about how to speak Chinese.

BUT, I could not speak it!

Then I met a wonderful woman who is to be my wife.

She spoke little English so I had to stumble through my rudimentary Chinese.

She is very very patient and I was soon speaking with some fluency. It was still simple Chinese and I am sure many of the tones are wrong, but she can understand.

I then realized that if I had done that from the very beginning I would be fluent by now.

You can't learn a language by just studying it.

You have to use it from the very beginning.

So don't waste 5 years like I did, start with an online tutor from eteacher and you will soon be speaking your new language fluently.

Chinese Students, the same applies to you. You will not learn English UNLESS you use it.
