B. Symbolic pictures of teaching career with annotations:
This couple were my first students who proposed that I teach people Chinese. It took me quite a while to scrounge this photo from my sea of emails. This was how I started my Chinese teaching over 16 years ago.
This was how the spoken English class in my personal workshop looked like a few years ago in Chengdu City, China.
This was me looking from the perspective of the students.
This one-to-one student studied for IELTS and ended in getting 6.5, and was admitted by Melbourne University in Australia.
Sometimes, the class is also appealing to kids especially when another family member, this boy's elder brother, made rapid progress with me.
Thai landlord and her friends were learning Chinese and English. I needed a bit of interpretation back then.
