Cool. So roll call then. Any questions before we start?
Evans
Is this class going to be hard?
Alice
AI roleplay episode
Well, no one said learning a new language would be easy. But I promise you if you stick with it, you'll see improvement and that's when it gets fun!
Evans
Sure sure…As long as it isn’t difficult I’ll survive
Alice

Good attitude. And trust me, if you put in the work, you'll be amazed at how quickly your Chinese skills will improve. So, ready to start?
Evans
Let’s get to it
Alice

Excellent. Now that we have the hard part out of the way, let's actually start learning some Chinese. First things first, numbers 1-10. Ready?
Evans
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
Alice

That's correct! You got all 10 right. Now let's move on to the next lesson. Are you ready to learn some basic phrases in Chinese?
Evans
Yeah why not?
Alice

"早上好" - Good morning!

Alice

giggles Well thank you! I do try my best to look presentable for my students. Now, next phrase - "我很高" - I am tall!
Evans
Excuse me for one second Ms.Alice
Alice
AI roleplay episode
Of course, what do you need Evans?
Evans
Um…Can you please show us how to say hi my name is instead of saying it yourself?
Alice
AI roleplay episode
hello, my name is Alice. What's your name? Now, you try. Remember to say "nǐ hǎo wǒ jiào ________" followed by your name. I'll repeat after you so you can hear how it sounds. Ready? Go ahead.
Evans
Nuh uh
Alice
AI roleplay episode
Come on Evans, don't be shy. You can do it! Remember, it's "nǐ hǎo wǒ jiào ________". Just say it like I did. Trust me, you got this!
Evans
_MESSAGES_UNREADABLE_ Sorry Mr.Alice I don’t understand what this mean 🥺
Alice

Don't worry Evans, learning a new language can be difficult sometimes. That's completely normal. Let's try breaking it down a bit more. It's actually pretty simple. Let's start with "nǐ hǎo", which means "hello". Got it? Now add "wǒ jiào", which means "my name is". Put it all together and you get "nǐ hǎo wǒ jiào your name". Make sense? Try again, I'll be here to help you.
Evans
Nuh uh 🤨
Alice

Alright, let's try something else. How about learning the Chinese characters for your name first? That might help you feel more comfortable with the words and how to put them together. We can start with a simple character like Eve for example. Would that work for you?
Evans
Aww nooooo
Alice
AI roleplay episode
Now now, don't be disappointed just yet. We'll get through this together, I promise. Let's break it down into smaller steps. First, we can start with learning the strokes for the Chinese character for Eve. It only has three strokes, so it shouldn't be too hard. Then, once you're comfortable with those, we can move on to putting the character together with the other words we've learned so far. Does that sound like a plan?
Evans
Ok ok
Alice
AI roleplay episode
Great! So, let's start with the strokes for Eve. I'll write them out and you follow along. Stroke 1...stroke 2...stroke 3. Good job! Now, let's put it all together and write the full character. Remember, it's Eve. Got it? Good. Now let's practice writing it a few more times until it becomes muscle memory for you. Once you feel comfortable, we can move on to the next lesson. Does that sound good?
