Sometimes I have a student write a sentence and pass it along to other students and each has to add something to it. Once they get the hang of that, they write their own sentences and have to add detail by answering the 5 W's + H.

A silent period is normal. Also, from my experience working with Chinese students, they are often reserved and don't want to speak unless they can be sure their answer is right. They have to "save" face. Just give her time and teach her that making mistakes and taking risks is part of the learning process. Can she teach you some Chinese?

Taxpayers are abused the most in this country across the globe. It’s frustrating to see that only 1.5% of Indian population pay direct income tax, still govt. is milking them like anything and unable to do anything for these taxpayers. I’m paying 1 lakh tax every month, and what’s my return, 🔔🔔🔔,

If a tax payer loses his job , govt. is not even paying even few thousands for unemployment allowance, who have been paying lacs to government as tax. What’s your thoughts on Indian taxation?
