@@ArniJ. can u please tell the name of the exchamge program

@aesticjan9726 the school was shih chien. The program was via asiaexchange.

@@ArniJ. currently taipei tech exchange program is available so should i apply for it, is it worth it as exchange program student in taiwaan

@aesticjan9726 i’d say so

Very cool. There are a couple dorms depending if you’re going to the boys or girls dorms. Right now it seems like we’re about 30-40.

In Taiwan they use traditional characters, in mainland they use simplified.

You don’t need to know any mandarin if you don’t feel like it. Nowadays there are translation apps that do everything for you if you want. I had friends that didn’t speak any chinese even after the exchange. It’s really up to you how much you are willing to learn. However, if you don’t learn mandarin, your experience will be more shallow in my opinion.

I struggle with the tones. I want to go for my senior year of high school, so that is where the issue comes in. @@ArniJ.

Because of that, I gave up.

@@mannesthemenace3428 I don't think you need to focus on the tones that much if you just want to speak simple things. I focus less on the tones when speaking and just try to make a similar sound, more like an audio copy of the native speaker. It's important to try different ways of learning to find what works for you.

@@ArniJ. I just want to be fully understood.
