我很喜欢这次的课程,只是觉得这几个学生都太谦虚了。我要是中文像他们那么好我就会十分满足!

我个人觉得中文越好就越难再提高自己的水平,想再进步还是要付出越来越多,花越来越多的时间。也许我们还是一直都在进步,只不过我们没有感觉到而已。反正,I personally believe that what helps me the most is a lot of input and a little output. I still remember something my piano instructor used to say to me: It shouldn't be "practice makes perfect" it's "perfect practice makes perfect." I have actually avoided "practicing" a lot while learning Chinese because I think it's difficult to unlearn mistakes.

It's very, very common to use it with adjectives. Just one of the several meanings of 好 other than good. Some other common examples:

好聪明

好舒服

好便宜 好贵

and of course there's the great phrase 好久不见 (long time no see)

Great job, both of you. I think you balance each other nicely. I'm really looking forward to hearing more from Ryan. I'm sure he'll have an interesting perspective on many topics!

I see it but I won't ruin it for others! Do you use the handwriting input?

It won't be that easy to get rid of me. I'm still looking forward to new lessons and commenting on the board!

This is such a kind comment. Thank you! John Pasden is a true genius, so I'm not sure that I'm up to that level yet, but I'm very happy you enjoyed the podcasts :)

Thanks so much to everyone for all the the kind comments and encouragement while I was hosting. 我真的很感动! It was such a joy and honor to help be a part of ChinesePod and work with the very talented people at the office.
