Dear Chinese people, 
You are so kind to talk to me and teach me your language.  I enjoy hearing your different regional accents and your colorful expressions.  
Hey listen, when you teach me a new word just let me run with it.  Don't teach me five more freaking synomyms.  When you teach me six different options, I am sure to forget every single one.  
Do you hear me?  
One word, and let me run with it.  Teach me the synonyms some other time.  
The same with grammar; once you teach me a construction, DO NOT immediately drill me on a different way to phrase it.  Do you hear me?  DON'T.  
Thanks for your time.  
Love, 万吉平
