Cantonese Lessons
Wouldn't it be fun to be able to saunter around Hong Kong, southern China and chinatowns around the world, conversing freely with locals in their own language? Happy Jellyfish People's Democratic Language Bureau can help you to achieve this with little or no effort on your part - all you have to do is follow our instructions.
The course is practical, hands-on and tailored to your needs, and, importantly, created by a foreigner like yourself.
If I can learn it, anyone can learn it! All it takes is the right attitude, namely accepting that Cantonese is an extremely easy language and not like English at all.
I don't think language learning and the typical school situation have anything to do with each other, so you will therefore not be referred to as my "student" but as my client or victim. I will also not be your "teacher" or "tutor" but your plumber; someone you pay to open up blockages and facilitate the flow of language.
The most important thing about this course is it should be fun. Apart from the learning sessions, full of laughter and giggles with only a minimum of violence, we will issue you with a social life and the chance to visit many places in China with your plumber/guide. You also have the chance to star in our Cantonese course on YouTube.

Devil Festival!
What a night! Friday October 30th in Lan Kwai Fong, squeezed by hordes but in a mostly good way.
We went out on a mission to spread the word of Cantonese, by force if necessary, only to be mobbed by mainlanders who wanted to have their photo taken with us.
Changing the world is tiring work. And because of the moustache, you have to drink beer through a straw!
Especially when the change includes Full World Supremacy for Cantonese. But we have to keep trying!
蘭桂坊 (Lan Gwai Fung – Orchid Cassia Neighbourhood/LKF)
鬼節 (Gwai jit – Devil festival/Halloween)
大陸人 (Daai luk yan – Big Landmass people/mainlanders)
Do yourself a favour – start learning Cantonese this year. Your 2016 will be completely transformed.

Learn Cantonese – Then Sit Back And Wait For The English
I’ve made a film about my experiences during 20 years of learning Cantonese. Cantonese is a really easy language to learn (contrary to people’s deep-held, sacred beliefs) – it’s just that it’s so damned difficult to get locals to communicate in their language …
Here is part 2: The solution. Ish.
