As a parent myself, I know how important it is to have a support group and community while we raise bilingual kids.
As a Chinese teacher and parent, I keep looking for better ideas to help my kids and hopefully other kids learn Mandarin-Chinese in an effective and fun way.
With this purpose, I am going to interview people who have some good ideas and lessons to share.
We will appreciate a Mandarin-Chinese Tang poem written by 王之涣( wáng,zhī huàn ): 登鹳雀楼( dēng guàn què lóu ).
When you think of spring, which imagine jumps into your mind in the first place? For me, it is green grasses.

To a Mandarin-Chinese learner, learning traditional characters or simplified characters is a question.
Traditional characters are used commonly in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau and most oversea communities.
Simplified characters are used officially on Mainland China, Singapore, Malaysia and growing oversea communities.
To English speakers, Mandarin-Chinese has a fame of being one of the most difficult languages to learn.
Back to many years ago, this statement might be true. However, it is is not the case any more.
