[quote=Anonymous]For all those expecting Mandarin to give your kid some unique skill - http://foreignpolicy.com/2015/09/25/china-us-obamas-one-million-students-chinese-language-mandarin/ Great, your kid and 999,999 other Americans will be speaking Chinese. What isn't explained in this article or the State Dept. press releases announcing this harebrained program is how students are going to make use of their Chinese. Chinese students are studying English because it is useful to them but that doesn't make the reverse equally true. [/quote]
