Today we talked about family members and jobs. I already know some of them but I still learned a lot today. It was a great lesson and I can't wait for our next lesson! Thank you so much for great lessons:)

It was a very good introductory one-hour lesson. We worked on phonetics mainly this time. We used two handbooks: "Mongolian Colloquial Speech Language Exercises for Mongolian Language Students" by Bayarmaa Khalzaa and "Mongolian for Beginners" by the same author. I'm very excited to learn even more of real spoken Mongolian in next classes.

I had a fun lesson with tutor Batjargal, as usual. Today we did some small sentences which helped to expand my vocabulary a little. She explained things I struggle with or were unsure of, such as sentence structure/cases/tenses. I'm looking forward to making more complex sentences, and our next lesson. :)

Ms Batjargal is one of the best teachers I've ever had. She explains the complicated Mongolian grammar very well, provides useful examples and knows how to motivate people. I already have three pages of notes with lots of new words after this lesson of 30 minutes, looking forward to the next one! Үнэхээр баярлалаа, багш аа! :-)

I had another interesting lesson with tutor Batjargal. Today we went over some more sentences I had made and/or tried to translate; I learnt some new words and tenses. She also kindly checked some text homework I had done and gave corrections, which is very helpful for strengthening my understanding of longer, more complex sentences. I like that she is always very patient and thorough, answering any questions to the fullest. I always leave the lesson wanting to know more about Mongolian language and culture. Although there will be a break, I'm excited to return to classes. Thank you for being such a wonderful tutor!

Today I enjoyed translating a short essay about learning Mongolian I had written, into Mongolian, with Batjargal. I got to learn a lot of fun and new expressions and grammar. Thanks as always to my favorite teacher!
