13:25 Jun 6, 2014 Nicole Y. Adams, M.A.: 117097 All Hi all, sorry to jump into the discussion so late. Here are some more ideas for diversification that are discussed on my book 'Diversification in the Language Industry' (I'll list them if that's ok?).
13:26 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All Well: the fact is that lots of Chinese are under high pressure to get a university degree. To be admitted at universtiy demands succeeding in an entrance exam. So almost all of the students of the teacher are teenagers wanting to succeed those entrance examens.
