‘Flexible’ Taipei charms recent college grad–a Commentary in the China Post “Eye on Taiwan”
January 26th, 2012One way to learn to write is by analyzing a well-organized essay and reproducing its outline. The following is an article I just came across while surfing the Net. Again, it’s about something we are very familiar with: Taipei. Taipei in the eye of a foreigner. Try to speak out or jot down the main idea of each paragraph as I did for the first paragraph, and then “find out” how the main idea was developed into a paragraph, for which writing a detailed outline is certainly of great help. In the meantime, enjoy the content.

Happy Chinese New Year!
January 23rd, 2012Happy Chinese New Year, everyone!
One way to acquire English is by reading something we like or we are familiar with in English. Etta, a former student of mine, told me that during the summer vacation after the high school entrance exam, she read quite a few English readers of stories she already knew because his familiarity of the story would help her guess the meaning of the new words and hence read smoothly.
The following is an online essay introducing the Chinese New Year. Read it as fast as possible for the first reading, which will enhance your readng speed, and read it the second time to pick up some useful English expressions. Enjoy it!

A New Year Filled with Love–新的一年 由分享愛開始
January 22nd, 2012At first, I entitled this entry “Welcome a New Year with Love,” but after a second thought, I changed it because though a good start is half done, we sometimes just don’t persist. The new title ensures love permeates our lives all year around.
Whether you give or receive love, have a good new year!
