Yi Kuan

The task today was to read a question in Malay and then give the answer. A good exercise for practising words I know and learning new ones and improving comprehension and sentence structure.

Super interesting topic in Cantonese class today pertaining to work life, travel, and friendships. Teacher Yi Kuan guides the lesson to touch on subjects relevant to my life and therefore vocabulary I would actually use every day. Class with Teacher Yi Kuan continues to increase my confidence in using the language as I was able to successfully converse with a shopkeeper in Cantonese today without feeling nervous, and I felt that I did not need to think too much before the right words came to mind. Thank you!

Learned holiday expressions. Teacher Yi Kuan teaches Cantonese while providing cultural insight. She was a huge help with teaching me expressions to use at my sister’s Chinese Tea ceremony, which I was able to share with my family members. She really goes above and beyond to support my learning.

We did a game where I had to guess the object she was describing. Very helpful exercise.

After an enforced break for a few months it was great to be back. As always Yi Kuan was patient and helpful and it was great to catch up and ease myself back into the routine of learning Malay.
