Q\uff1aWhy did you come to China?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A\uff1aMy husband and I lived almost our entire lives in Florida. One day, he came home from work looking a bit shocked. I asked if everything was alright, and he told me that he had just received a job offer in Hong Kong<\/strong>. We love traveling, so he decided to accept the job offer. It was easy for me to find a job in Hong Kong as an English teacher, and we spent three years traveling and enjoying ourselves. Living in Hong Kong was amazing, and our daughter was born there in 2020. At that point, my husband was offered another job in Shanghai<\/strong>. We had another discussion about it, and after looking at the opportunities present in China, we decided to continue our adventure here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q\uff1aDo you think it is useful for foreigners to learn Mandarin? Why? And why you\u2019d like to learn Mandarin?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A\uff1aMy parents were both immigrants, and they always stressed to me the importance of learning the culture<\/strong> of the country you live in. They both spoke very little English at first, but learned by watching television <\/strong>and visiting the library<\/strong>. My husband is Brazilian, and when we met, I learned Portuguese to better understand his culture. Now that I live in China, I plan on doing the same. While learning Mandarin<\/strong> hasn\u2019t been as easy as Portuguese, I find it a lot of fun. It\u2019s been interesting being able to pick up a little bit of conversation and even participate. The people I meet whom I try to speak with are all quite friendly.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A\uff1aDuring class, I take notes<\/strong> with different colored pens. Then, when I get home, I make flashcards<\/strong> and transfer vocabulary and Chinese characters into another notebook. Rewriting it helps me remember as well as review my brightly colored notes once a day. I try to listen to music in Chinese<\/strong> as well. While at Disney, we stumbled into a Frozen singalong in Chinese. It was really cool to hear \u201cLet It Go\u201d in Chinese, and now we play it at home for my daughter (and also for me). I also try and practice with everyone around me.

A\uff1aWhen my daughter was younger, I loved taking her for a walk in her stroller around Jingan Park. There are quite a few older people who hang out there and dance or play games. Often, they would come up to us and start talking. I had no idea what they would say, so I would quickly walk away from them. It made me feel uneasy, since I wasn\u2019t sure what they were saying and they kept trying to grab my daughter. One of the first things Julia explained to me was that older people here really love babies, and they probably wanted to know basic things about her. Julia taught me how to say how old she was, that she was a girl, and that I did not understand Chinese. This changed everything!<\/strong> We took a trip to Yangshuo, and, armed with this knowledge, felt confident<\/strong> enough to let some people hold her and even play with her while my husband and I had dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
