Volunteering at a Chinese School on Sunday
Last Sunday, I went volunteering at a Chinese School on Sunday. This was my second time there. The students at school don't speak Chinese very well. Their parents came from Asian countries, and they want their children to learn the Chinese language well. Those students go to regular school from Monday to Friday. Besides this, they go to the Chinese school every Sunday. When they come to school, many of them feel tired. Some of them would yawn, some of them would nap, others would draw pictures and still others would listen to their teachers. One of the students told me that he didn't like go to Chinese school on Sunday because he was tired. He wanted to play with his friends or watch movies at home.
 Sometimes, teachers play games with students or share funny stories with them. It makes the class more interesting. I thought it was a good idea. So, the teachers were working hard, and the students were learning hard, too.
  I think it is very important for one to know his or her mother tongue. Knowing one's mother tongue may be useful in the future. If you have a chance to learn other languages, the addition language will be useful in your life. So, I am happy that I have the chance to learn English. Although sometimes it was difficult to learn, I will still continue to learn the language.
