Hi. Could you add the Chinese corner to recurring events for tuesdays 7-9? We dont know if we will stick with saturdays so I didnt mention that.
BTW the is another networking meetup at beer nest, I think it’s nov. 20? A tuesday. That seems to be an entrepreneur group and its also public.
Hey guys, I wont be around this week, I’m going to Hong Kong but Colby will have the Chinese corner in the same place (though, sorry, the house will be closed so please use the bathroom before you come).
The corner will be Saturday 3-5pm and tuesday 7-9. If saturday doesnt work out we will change it back to thursday.
Heh Callum, Zack is way past my level too, but it’s a language corner, not a class as such and with so many chinese people coming just to hang out and help us, there are plenty of people you can ask to explain what you dont know. I think it’s super beneficial (especially if you like learning rude or offensive or amusing words as much as I do).
Hi Andrew, yeah I think it’s good for beginner. I’m actually not sure if it’s not too simple for people who know more but the truth is if you can speak chinese with a good size vocabulary, there are plenty of places for you to practice, so this corner will probably still to beginner/low intermediate level for a while.It was great meeting you guys and I look forward to hanging out again. Hope to meet a bunch of new people next saturday.
Hi guys. We are having Chinese corner again. I hope some of you join us. I’m looking forward to meeting Callum.
~TinaAh I’m using language corners. I am having a lot more fun going to Chinese Corner then I do going to normal class and I am learning a hell of a lot more. Yesterday I learned words for Gamer, playboy, pervert, asshole 😀 among other useful terms. Most importantly I learned how to use them. So if anyone is interested and at a beginner/intermediate level, you are welcome to come join us. Right now we actually have more regular chinese friends visiting us to help than foreigners, so you can meet a lot of cool people too.
Hi guys. Just a reminder that we will have Chinese corner tomorrow night at 7-9. The topic is going to be “describing people and jobs”. Please text me at 13540430337 to RSVP so we know how many people are coming.

Hi Trevor, it’s quite easy to find, just get off at Nijiaqiao subway stop, go to nijiaqiao street and keep going strait west until it turns into fangcao xi er jie. On that corner is the apartment complex, you have to turn south on fangcao jie for a block or so to get to the entrance gate and then u call me to go let you in. easy 😀
Hey Mr Klink. We just started this project so any advice is useful. I will let the teacher know. Hope to see you guys theres this week.
Hi guys. I’ve been thinking a residential area might be a bit more ideal, so I’m now looking for a first floor apartment in a residential complex. I’ve actually found several for less than 1500 on the first floor but I’m still looking around. thanks for the advice and sorry I didnt respond sooner. I lost the thread.
Oh, it can be inside a residential complex. To start we will basically be running it as “my house open to the public” to see how it works out and then get the permits as necessary (a Chinese friend is guiding us on that. We are still not sure about whether to register as a non-profit or as a business, since the main part is non profit (actually I am personally absorbing the costs) but it still has some for-profit aspects which will hopefully cover maintenance and expenses at some future time.
