Roots for (Shanghai) is a non-profit that provides teaching skills aimed at local Chinese people who are in the lower-wage-earning bracket. Inspired by the people who are struggling to earn a living – enough to take care of their family, my friend Mike with years of professional teaching and management experience decided to apply his expert skills to help others.
He trains these people to teach others their native language. Does it work? Yes! Yours truly was a ‘guinea pig’ in a trial lesson. I had learnt some Shanghainese phrases in a matter of 30minutes. I was shocked + impressed to find that my teacher’s day time job is a delivery boy.
Don’t believe it? See for yourself. Get yourself some really practical lessons directed by a friendly guy with years of experience teaching and running courses in USA, Japan and China – and help others while helping yourself to get some very practical Chinese lessons that will help you shop, order food, travel. Mike’s email address is on the design above!
