In this episode, I share a hilarious true story about how Thai students (including me!) in Nanjing still found a way to shower twice a day — even when hot water was gone and it was snowing outside! 🧊🇹🇭🚿

오랜만이에요, 여러분. 잘 지냈어요?
저는 요즘 매일 바쁜 하루를 보내고 있어요. 
그래서 우울할 때도 많았는데 지난 주에 한 유튜브 영상을 봤어요.
긍정적인 마음을 가져야 한다는 내용이었어요.

It's been a while, everyone! How have you been?
I've been so busy lately. So sometimes I felt blue but then I came across this video on Youtube.
It was about having a positive mind.

In this episode we are going to learn how to 【Introduce my Chinese teacher】. 
--------------------------------------------------
As a beginner, there're some vocabularies that you didn't learn before, and native speaker's speed seems too fast to understand. But don't worry, let's do it step by step. 
1st time: listen and catch the words you know alreay, have a guess about the content.
2nd time: look at the text to check if you guessed it right. 
3rd time: listen one more time, repeat after it.
4th time: practise until you can speak as the normal speed without looking at the text.
