@@unconventionalchinesewithkeren If you check Pleco (which is not the end-all-be-all, I realize), it shows that 尔 is broken down to 勹 and 小. But in the end, you're right: if you just need a good mnemonic, it doesn't really matter which system you choose, if it works well enough for you.
I am a language dabbler, not a language teacher by any means, but I watched every minute of this video! Wow!! Your enthusiasm for teaching (and doing it in a proven way that gets results) really shines through. I love that you see how importance confidence is in language learning. Thanks for sharing this!
I think one of the reasons they get stuck in the intermediate level without character, is that they depend on the pinyin (which is a must for typing) and can relatively recognise the characters due their continuous practice (reading characters/words with pinyin+characters and pinyin typing), but book after HSK 3 don't provide pinyin, only characters, how to continue then, they get stuck! Did any of guys went through this?
*Switch it around?* After showing them the basic hanzi used for radicals, give them a list of words and a list of hanzi and ask them to match them. I wouldn’t have guessed that the person was leaning on the tree; they’re not touching. I was thinking the person of a tree/root/source is… what? I had no idea. But if there’s a list of words including Bright and there’s a sum and a monk, I could figure that out. From just Sun+ moon, I might have guessed Sky. The relationship between the radical and main component is not always the same. Sometimes they accumulate and sometimes it is what one does to another.
A country in south east Asia, used Pinyin, imagine use Pinyin and character Actually Chinese character contain symbol and parts to form. English alphabet joined side way. Chinese character can join left and right and top and bottom.

I think the top component of 你 is 勹 rather than 刀
@@yeroca it's not 勹, nor 刀. it's really 亻+ 尔. it looks like a little 刀, so i'm just creating storytelling to help students remember the character.

as a student, i found this class to be very accurate and well-founded. i wish there was more on this
Excellent video, thanks!

i think learning chinese with the hsk system is one of the real reasons why people can't pass intermediate level

4
Isn’t that the R syllable inside the “box”?
Four is the only digit that has an R in English.
Japanese teachers can teach characters (kanji) in this way, too
