Language Power 蓝格子, 跑啊!

I am blessed to meet many inspiring personnel & many helpful people as I tread on this temporary world.  Many a time, these people shed light when I was in the tunnel, gave me a hand when I fell.

1 of the most inspiring personnel I have come across in my life thus far is 张美香, Eeva Chang, of whom AJ & I affectionately address as 美香校长.  I blogged about how we crossed our paths in May this year, you may like to read about it here.  AJ did a remarkable stage show when he was in her enrichment centre.  Never would I have dreamt that my boy could do this at age 4+ (blog link). & he did so much more under her Mandarin Public Speaking programme (blog link).

In the few Meet-the-Parent sessions that she held with us, she shared many insights on how to enhance/improve our children's Chinese.  The fact that AJ does not have much difficulty coping with Chinese, I know that I have owed her much.

When she publicised 'Language Power" <蓝格子, 跑啊!> in the facebook, I had the urge to go.  I know I would learn A LOT from her.  This is what she quoted in the facebook:

你为什么应该来看我的演讲秀?!
现代人时间宝贵, 要把时间花在对自己最有意义, 最有益处的事情上, 即使是朋友也是一样, 不可只是捧场。
所以,我把为什么你应该来看我的演讲秀的理由列下来, 希望你看看, 9月20日我们蓝格子,跑啊! (Language Power)见!!
