Yi Kuan

This lesson was more of a relaxed chat with some test questions at the end. Really helpful as always.

Teacher Yi Kuan makes our Cantonese class so memorable and interesting by conducting the class like a casual conversation you would have speaking to a friend. Not only do we work on vocab, we also discuss cultural phenomenon in Malaysia. This is particularly useful because some of the phrases are regional, and some colloquialisms in KL sometimes differ from those said in Ipoh, where Teacher Yi Kuan is from. My goal in this class is to speak Cantonese with confidence when I visit my family in Penang. Because of my weekly classes with Teacher Yi Kuan, I feel immersed in the language. The regularity of speaking Cantonese with her helps me to remember how to speak it without having to think about it. Perhaps the best thing about Teacher Yi Kuan's class is the way she makes 30 minutes pass by so quickly with lots of laughter and entertaining topics. The class is something I look forward to every week. Thank you!!

Created sentences using the most common Malay words so that I can practice using them. When you know the 1000 most common words you can at least communicate in most situations.

Continued working through the 1000 most common Malay words and using them in sentences. This is definitely the best approach because most sentences use the 1000 most common words.

Another great lesson creating sentences with the 1000 most common Malay words.

We are working through the top 1000 most commonly used Malay words and making sentences of them all. Really helpful because most situations only require the most common words.
