Self reflections:
At first, we felt that this assignment was too difficult and time-consuming to do. We did not
understand how it could help us in our Chinese-learning journey. However, it
turns out that we were totally wrong.
Looking back, we had a lot of fun in brainstorming and coming up with ideas to put into our script. Some of our ideas were so crazy that we couldn’t help but to laugh at them. Also, we realize that the most difficult part was to find a time when all of us could meet up together to record the podcast. However, we were quite efficient as we didn’t spend too much time in recording the podcast.
Lastly, this experience has helped us in improving our Chinese-speaking abilities. Through our interaction with Minqi, we managed to pick up the correct pronunciations for some of the new words. We also had the opportunity to practice our speaking abilities. In addition, we ourselves learn some common conversations in China through our podcast, and we hope that the audience can benefit from our podcast as well. We would also like to specially thank our beloved 张老师 who has been extremely helpful and supportive with her feedbacks and guidance throughout.
Through this experience, we rediscovered our interests in learning Chinese. It was a humbling experience indeed. We also realize that we need to hone our Chinese further so that one day (hopefully) we may speak much better Chinese. We really hope that all of you enjoy listening to our podcast as much as we enjoy making it. 拜拜!
