granted, many Chinese learned many vocabularies. However, the writing (taking one of the best high school of china as an example) is terrible. The topic sentence doesn't have support. Even worse, they simply list evidence (no matter accurate or not) without any reasoning that connecting evidence back to thesis. It's not their fault because the education system is only focusing on grammar and vocabulary (I know this because I was in Chinese public school before). And eventually they will forget all English because they will never use it after graduation. It's a shame.

Hey Mike, great vid, good to see the confidence in these students during your conversations, especially the two fellas with glasses - you can feel that they’ve got this ‘no compliments needed’ attitude when speaking, which is pretty awesome. Your channel is a goldmine, although I’ve only just recently discovered it. Thx m8 & keep it up.
Its so nice to see how friendly and good natured all the people are giving the interviews.

I feel that 辛苦了 and 加油 and stuff are quite Chinese and while you can certainly explain what they mean, there are no true direct translation. Similarly, a straight-A student is an American concept, as other countries, China included, don't usually do letter grading.
