寫春聯xiě chūnlián—Time for Spring Couplets

Updated: Nov 3, 2021

Every learner is unique. This artist student, after completing the conversation class and entering listening, speaking, reading and writing, has more resonance with Mandarin because of learning words. Today is our last class before CNY. Though she was kind of tired after just finishing the winter vacation camp, but this cultural activity of writing Spring Festival couplets clearly ignited her enthusiasm. As a teacher, I do look forward to her future creative spring couplets as an artist. Among language and culture, writing and art, study and life, the value of balance in Chinese culture actually exists everywhere.


每一個學習者都是獨一無二的。這位藝術家學生,在完成會話課進入聽說讀寫之後,因為學習文字,與中文有了更多共鳴。今天是我們年前最後一堂課,剛結束寒假營隊的她,有點疲憊,但是寫春聯這項文化活動,顯然點燃了她的熱情。而身為老師的我,其實更期待身為藝術家的她之後的創意春聯。語言與文化,文字與藝術,學習與生活,處處都有中華文化的平衡之道。
