给爸爸、妈妈的信！
爸爸、妈妈，你们好吗？我来中国三个月了。我能说汉语了，会写汉字了，还看了一本汉语书。你们听了高兴吗？北京今天下雨了，很冷。你们那儿怎么样呢？我们学校有一个汉语老师。同学们都很喜欢他。老师的家在学校前面。有时候，我们坐出租车去他家玩。他请我们喝茶、吃中国菜。他家的桌子、椅子都是中国风，很漂亮。我的朋友病了。昨天上午，我和他去了医院。医生说，现在天气很冷，你要多喝热水；多吃菜和水果；多睡觉。
我想睡觉了，爸爸妈妈晚安！
你们的女儿。

A letter for Dad and Mum

In this episode, since it is the first Monday of the month, we will embark on a thrilling journey that will immerse us in the sights, sounds and stories of one country. 

We'll connect with a local to learn about the country, its culture, and dispel some of those stereotypes that we may all have. In this episode, we won't just be tourists, we'll be explorers. 

Meet someone who knows this destination better than anyone I know. Our guest today is Nidia. She will be our guide as we travel to Honduras. 

Let's go!

The Lion and the Mouse Aesop fable.
Take an English Lesson with Carl https://italki.com/teacher/1947582
Once upon a time there was a lion who was hunting for food in the forest.
In the afternoon he was tired and sleepy,
so he slept under a tree.
A little mouse came and ran on the lion's back not knowing that it disturbed the lion.
The lion woke up and was angry.
He caught the mouse and roared,
"I will eat you up now."
....
Thanks for listening!

Português pra gringo

Natal no Brasil (Brazilian Christmas )

Hello and welcome to my Chinese Channel! What's your name and my name is, this would be the very first interaction between you and the Chinese person. Today let's see how to ask the name and answer it in Chinese.

你叫什么名字？what's your name?

Yuka arrives in Korea and takes a taxi on her very first day, but a small misunderstanding happens when she tries to say her destination.

Yuka is a Japanese exchange student who has just arrived in Korea to begin her new life abroad. Everything is new and exciting, but even simple moments—like taking a taxi—can become unexpected learning experiences.

In this scene, you’ll practice how to say your destination naturally in Korean and learn the pronunciation difference between “o (ㅗ)” and “eo (ㅓ)”, sounds that many Korean learners often find confusing.

You’ll also learn useful Korean expressions that you can use in real-life situations, especially when traveling or moving around Korea.

As Yuka begins her journey, many new experiences and small adventures await her in Korea, and each episode will help you learn Korean through real daily life situations.

※ Note: Up to Episode 3, Yuka’s slightly awkward pronunciation is intentional to realistically portray a beginner learner’s Korean and show her gradual improvement over time.

Listen and repeat to build natural Korean speaking skills with us!
