[quote=Anonymous]Chinese is hard and like PP, it’s a tonal language. By HS, it’s harder to learn and differentiate the tones. Chinese is also character based and the written language is challenging. Also, by HS, most students are native speakers. The teacher favors native speakers to the point where she basically makes it so challenging that most non-native speaker just drop out. She takes pride in teaching to native speakers. Honestly, what’s the point in teaching native speakers! The sign of a great teacher is someone who can teach the language to a non native speaker and have them excel. This is at a W school. [/quote]
