You know Red Rose, I studied both Cantonese and Mandarin, but I really don't speak either well. It is easy to recognize which is which without being fluent! I just use a little with my students to make them relax, and so I know if they are speaking about the lesson Wink.

and if your students say something bad about you, they won't get away with that Very Happy (just kidding)

I guess most of your students are Chinese. they have to be careful with their teacher, because their teacher knows what they are talking about.

Actually, they just *think* the teacher knows, but that works too!
