Yiddish is, unfortunately, not one of the more commonly offered languages today (I wouldn't mind taking it either).\n\nI would try to contact a Jewish center or synagogue in your area - they might know of a place, or even offer lessons themselves.  A university might offer a course, but it's more unlikely.  If you don't want a formal classroom, per se, you could also try visiting a retirement home with Jewish members, and seeing if anyone there will be willing to teach you.  Good luck!

I started teaching in China ten years ago, everywhere from BeiDa all the way down to rural schoolhouses.\nUnfortunately there are very few schools left in China, only businesses pretending to be schools.\nStill, if you want more info check out http://teflchina.org/ for the most comprehensive site on the subject.

Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah (a private church school)offers an incredible number of foreign languages, both commonly taught and less-commonly taught.  I know of no other school that offers more.

First of all, this belongs in "education - other" or "teaching," not "special education" (unless you specialize in working with students with disabilities?). \n\nYou have to "shop around" to find districts who may be interested in your services. It would help if you also have other certifications (e.g. sociology, history, etc.). Subscribe to or find copies of US education journals, such as "Education Week" (see link below). Many have excellent job fair and contacts listings. Most may not necessarily post a specific need for a Chinese Language Teacher, but you can submit your resume to as many as possible and see who shows interest.\n\nAlso, while you are certified in China, you will need to go through coursework and certification in the United States to teach in public schools. You may want to first focus on the private school sector, and colleges.\n\nGood luck!

I'm in china too, and I've found that most Chinese textbooks for learning chinese are not very useful or applicable to real life.\n\nI started with the pronunciation of the pinyin with the free class my school gave.  Then I moved to writing/reading (which should be combined but they don't understand that) I used "Reading and Writing Chinese" by Tuttle Publishing, Hong Kong.  can buy in major cities' foreign language bookstore for around 120RMB.  It mostly teaches the old characters but is very useful because it has english explanations and step-by-step (or stroke-by-stroke) writing diagrams.  And if you know the old you can learn the new ones easily, but not the other way around.\n\nOnce you have basic numbers, travel words and everyday needs, you should sit down with a phrasebook or a restaurant menu and study the foods.  It is a must-do!  Eat something different every day and study the characters and pronunciation of the food words.\n\nBeyond that, I would recommend you take a chinese friend to the bookstore and look through a few books until you find one that best suits you.  DONT buy the one your friend recommends, keep looking... you will find one, but it has to be challenging and interesting, not the "Kunming is the spring city" type of book, thats BS that you will never need in your daily life as a foreigner.

Hey, I'm from Hong Kong, and have just moved back to Canada, my mom wants me to practise Chinese more often. E- mail me, the address is in my profile.\nSure I can see the characters, and I'd say I'm fine thank you! Mind if you tell us whether you are a guy or gal? Two more things, it's learnt and it's Putonghua! \nCheers!C

online? i don't think so; but she has some seminars in singapore, i think. sorry, am not a fan. though i used to study under her mentor (master yap cheng hai) before, later i swtiched to master peter leung. i don't like her... well, not that rumors says that she had a love child with master ych... but if i am paying someone to teach me, i like to pay someone who is the best, or one of the best. she might be a good fengshui writer, but sad to say she's not the best in fengshui to teach.\ni heard from one of her students, that when she teaches fengshui, she teaches you using her own luo pan, not the usual luo pan with all the chinese characters on it... not very authentic, i mean using her luo pan. chinese clients would consider you a fake using her luo pan for an audit. it is not very professional. and i heard that she does not teach what master ych did not divulge to her... very limited knowledge.\nso after that alledged affair, the fengshui business of master ych also was taken over by joey yap. i also took some courses under him, and i did not like it at all. because if you ask him a question, he will likely to tell you to take his other courses for him to answer that... it is all money, money money! so i switched to master peter leung. he taught me a many theories/ techniques including those of master's ych's at a fraction of what ych/joey yap's fees.\n\ni think my main point is that lillian too may be a great writer, but she's not a good fengshui master to learn from... join some yahoogroups, and have some friends there... especially those from singapore, they'd know more. just be careful from teachers who teaches fengshui, yet don't have a long history/ experiences in fengshui (like lillian too). my answer to you is what i experienced from about 5 years of attending fengshui seminars.\n\nwww.fengshuisos.com (master peter leung)
