Description

I am getting married very soon to a wonderful man who is Chinese. He and his family came here from Hong Kong thirty years ago. While my fiance has become very Westernized, his parents still follow many of their country's and religion's customs; and, of course, they still speak Chinese---alo ng with some very broken English.
During gatherings and holiday events with the family, communication is a struggle, to say the least. Eventually, after a few minutes, they all fall into speaking their own language, and I am left sitting for hours not knowing what anyone is saying! My fiance translates as much as is practical, but you can imagine how frustrating this is for me!
I would like to be able to honor and communicate with my future in-laws. I could attempt to learn from books or tapes, but I find that I learn much better with a live teacher. I would need someone who is patient, as I am thirty-six years old, and do not learn as quickly as I used to!
I look forward to a response.
Th ank you,
Sonya
