Today, there were many visitors to the nature center where I

work. I heard one group speaking Mandarin so I asked one of the women “你们是中国人吗?” We had a short conversation where I spoke very bad Chinese and tried to tell her that I have many Chinese friends online that I teach English to. I later realized it was the first time I had spoken Chinese with a stranger in person and that even though I made many mistakes it made me want to study even harder.

今天，在我工作的地方—-自然中心来了很多游客，当我听到其中一个团队里面的一位妇女在讲中文。” are you Chinese?” Or “ do you come from China?”,于是，我们有了简短的对话。我很努力的用中文告诉她在互联网上，我有很多中国朋友，我教他们英语，这是我第一次和陌生的中国人用汉语面对面的交流，尽管出现了很多错误，这段简短的对话，激发了我更加努力学习汉语的愿望😄

👍perfect. 能勇于尝试中文交流就很好了，你现在的中文口语已很好，距离像native speaker那样的流利表达应是指日可待的事🌟🌟🌟

Every time when I met foreign strangers who I could use English to talk to, I’ve always been extremely excited and motivated to study harder.😄
