Peggy Teaches Chinese: How to say hello in Chinese and Chinese tones

Ron Simms is back

The guy from the BlackMan N China YouTube video's is back with some new video's about how boring life is in Cleveland. I guess he's missing China.

Pinyin and Google

Peggy Teaches Chinese

I've been watching the Peggy Teaches Chinese YouTube video's since she first started making them back in February. Her lessons are good, and she has a good sense of humour. It is also great to see some Taiwan based lessons for a change. There is not an enormous difference between the Mandarin spoken in China and that spoken in Taiwan, but there are differences. And of course the writing is different.

She also offers skype tutoring.

I may post some of her best lessons on here in future, as well as any new lessons she uploads.
