Hi Norman,

Take it easy, the upper intermediate in the 4th week is very easy to understand, it's just a little bit longer than the intermediate lessons. I will call you on the phone when you are in China,  could you tell me your available time to have class?

Best regards

Thanks Lily.

I appreciate straight-forward and honest feedback. What do I need to do to improve? I really don't have a method. How do I compare to your other Elementary people or intermediate people?

Time to leave the hotel.

All the best !

Hi Norman,

Sorry for not being able to reply you timely. Your oral language is better than most of my elementary students, but compare to intermediate or upper level students, I think you need try to build up more complected struture and sentences. Sometimes when you were speaking a long sentence, you spoke in English uncounsciously. Acturally, I believe that you have the ability to build up the sentence in Chinese with the language you have already learnt, what you need is to take some time to think about it and then try to put the words together. So I have a suggestion, how about I give you some homework to make some sentences or to reordering some words to a whole sentences? If you agree with me, we may have a try in the future.

Best regards

Lily
