Why This American Moved to a Chinese Second-Tier City? 【Advanced Chinese Listening Practice】

Описание: Heya, Rita aka Fàn Lǎoshī here! Today we have another brilliant guest on my channel!

Akeel was born in NYC, and grew up in Maryland. After learning Mandarin Chinese in high school and college, he decided to move to China, and instead of big cities like Shanghai or Beijing, he went to Hefei, a southern city that is not so popular for foreigners!

In the first half of our interview, we talked about:

0:00 Akeel's Chinese Learning Experience
4:21 Difference between Chinese learning in the US and in China
8:01 Life in Hefei and Shanghai
10:53 Keep Improving Mandarin ability after intermediate level
16:41 Meaning of learning a language
