Can't believe the patience these blessed people have. "It helps to use my hands" and" I was already to you!" So many fun reactions from each person, including you. This was fun!
Yes china is not very multicultural in comparison to the west, and rarely are foreigners born and raised there so, its not often they find white people speaking their language which unless you are specifically interested in china is not very useful when compared to English which is more globally used for communication and business. and with the amount of asians born in western countries plus them learning english in primary school where we would learn french or spanish typically, well its not a shock to see asians speaking english.
I'm sorry if you have had that experience. English is my first language, and I think it's awesome to meet people who have learned English as a second language. I'm glad you're a part of our language community.
Auron has the right answer here. I would also add, if we're being totally honest with ourselves-English is just a much easier language. The difference in reactions seems pretty justified to me? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@MichaelBeale that's very debatable, this seems to me like a fish don't know they're in water situation. The things that make languages easy or hard to learn depend a lot on what languages you already speak; Generally speaking the closer the language is to you native language (or any language you speak), the easier it would be to learn. So if you're a dutch or spanish speaker, english isn't gonna be the hardest language out there, but for speakers of non indo-european languages english isn't that much easier than mandarin is to us. Obviously this is not the only factor, but having learned mandarin I don't find that it's that much harder than english, both are very analytic languages, which means it lacks the sorts of grammatical inflections and irregularities that trip people up so much in synthetic languages. In addition the writing system isn't as hard as people make it out to be, it doesn't feel that much more different than just learning vocab in any other language, you just learn the characters as you go. It is still hard and has an extra layer of memorization (at least at first), but I don't think the challenge it presents is that different from the challenge of learning the obtuse spelling system in english.
I like this. It actually showed me that the Chinese teachers actually have good advice for students and they don’t want them to be discouraged. They want to show them slowly and diligently. Very professional

@@Monkeyabroad you're just so much better than that, man. Westerners are marginalized and subsequently tokenized all over Asia, and your "White guy speaking Chinese" videos play right into that.

Well , to be fair , decades of exchange students were China going to US colleges , not the other way around , only recently has China given incentive for learning the language and actually going to that shithole lol , won’t take long to catch up , the we will probably say the same thing 40 yrs from now
No, Kevin, it was brilliant that you told them your Chinese improved after drinking coffee. I wish I can say the same and despite drinking many cups I am still on first base. Wow, good of them to play along as after a few minutes they sensed that something was not quite right.
As someone who is learning HSK 4 rn and already went through a lot of this, I very much enjoyed the video. A little bit of cringe at the start but all good.
Hey, just wanted to say that your content is still great & entertaining and has always been so. No idea what has happened to the view number recently, but I hope it doesn’t demotivate you and stuff. Thank you and keep up the great job! :)
Thank you for the kind words. This video has potential to reach a bigger audience, cuz I’ve tailored it for the algorithm; I’ll check back after a few weeks to see if it’s been recommended in the right circles, because I don’t see my current audience appreciating the cringe of this type of video.

Might run into one or two, but I'm guessing he pays for these lessons via language-learning sites, so the teachers aren't going to mind that much. It's not like he's not compensating them.

To be fair, the Chinese teachers are still speaking a higher level of English then his “advanced” Chinese.
The disparity between the respective foreign language standards in China vs USA is real.

It is absolutely crazy how handsome he is. amazing face!
Your Chinese really improves after 咖啡， you should hear mine after a few beers ! 😂😂😂😂哈哈！
I genuinely enjoy all these online Chinese teachers they're all wonderful
Man, those teachers were all so patient and lovely. Hope you tipped them well!
Right on , share what you earned from views with them...

"are you a youtuber"- that teacher was smart
And cute

Very good the lady got surprised instantly by student acceleration in learning by coffee.
The coffee is magical
"are you a you tuber?" HAGHAGHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH1!
This was very entertaining. That magic coffee really worked,
So there is a magic potion to instantly get you fluent! I always knew.
Gotta admit... Its always a pretty solid flex when you burst out fluently talking a language amongst native speakers who aren't half expecting you to.
dang, your mandarin has improved so much, sounds just like a native mandarin speaker.
LMAO what was up with the ending?!😂
I went nuts with Fiverr in the past week if you can’t tell
Do the birdy!
Ahhh I see your spending your quarantine time well trolling
People online 😂cool video tho great idea 👌

jajaja! That teacher's "wo hen hao" killed me.
yeah i thought the same ... why is she even teaching ...
Why?
I'm learning Thai. You are inspiring. Thank you for your video.
