]]> Comment on About aha!Chinese by Lynette Mattke http://www.ahachinese.com/wp/about/#comment-2 Lynette Mattke Fri, 29 Apr 2011 00:29:45 +0000 http://www.ahachinese.com/wp/?page_id=2#comment-2 You have a beautiful site with a ton of great content. I came across ahachinese through author Grace Lin’s site to read your review of The Ugly Vegetables.
I am wondering if you would be interested in reviewing a couple of PicPocket Books’ Chinese/ Chinese American themed picture book apps. One of our titles is Round is A Mooncake, illustrated by Grace Lin adn written by Roseanne Thong. Another is Boy Dumplings, by Ying Change Compestine. Please let me know if you are interested and I’d be happy to get some review copies into your hands.

Best regards,
Lynette

]]> Comment on The Bilingual Brain: Dispelling the Myths by Robin Moore http://www.ahachinese.com/wp/education/the-bilingual-brain-dispelling-the-myths/#comment-24 Robin Moore Tue, 19 Apr 2011 18:02:16 +0000 http://www.ahachinese.com/wp/?p=1053#comment-24 Your blog on The Bilingual Brain: Dispelling Myths brings up excellent points in regards to how children learn. It reminds me of a research paper I did in college which shows that learning a 2nd or even a 3rd language–even as an adult–can benefit the neural pathways through the brain. This is comparable to the benefits of learning musical instruments–which are great for the brain– as well as helping the development of math skills. The conclusion was that, yes, adults should keep learning languages too, and not just assume that only children can learn other languages.

Wo hen hao.
Is there a way I can “subscribe” to this blog? This sounds very interesting.
I am a writer. Our own children are now adults, but I am currently studying Mandarin on my own. I took one semester of Chinese at Santa Rosa Junior College, but the courses were axed there due to budget cuts. I continue to listen to Mandarin language learning cd’s in the car while I drive 40 mi. (one way) each week to work with my writers’ critique groups. I write novels for middle grades students and young adults.
Xie xie!
