Angel Yuan is our teacher at Key Language. To catch up with group classes that had already started…read moreI had two one-on-one lessons, then joined the class. It was obvious from the first one-on-one session that she was a first class teacher. Angel standards are high, it reflects in the level of teaching! With a high competency in English, this transfers into making the Mandarin relevant for day to day use. The material from Key Language is detailed on the structure of the language, good vocabulary, and relevant exercises that push you, and enable you to bring together what is being taught in each module. Angel is an enthusiastic teacher, personable, patient, and thorough. I have come to realize that learning Chinese requires hard work, but it is not hard to learn! This 5 star review is fully earned, and justified.

So I search on line and found this course called "Mandarin for REALTOR" by Key Language Training. The material in this course are 100% tailor made for REALTOR. I learned a lot of vocabulary and conversation, the key to success like everything else, we got to practice, practice and practice.

I'm really pleased with the services provided by the staff of Severide Law. I was fortunate in…read morethat I had never had to use a lawyer for anything. Then, I was faced with two separate legal matters - one after another. I used Severide for both. The staff are professional and empathetic. I can't believe how hard my litigation lawyer, Jacqueline Sowa, worked on my case. She was well prepared for court and presented the evidence to the judge in a concise manner without dumb theatrics or posturing. If you need a lawyer, I definitely recommend giving these people a call.

I was wrongly charged with assault and uttering threats. I retained Justin for my bail hearing…read morewhere he had me out the same day. We set the matter for Trial and we received a NOT GUILTY verdict after 2 days of Trial. Not only is Justin a walking law library -- his technical knowledge is razor sharp and as "good as it gets" -- he is equally exemplary in his demeanor, patience, and pure empathetic nature. There was a 20 month delay in getting to trial where i finally had my opportunity to speak the truth. Justin stuck with me every step of the way during this very difficult personal ordeal for me. Justin: You are my lawyer for life. Thank you!!! I highly recommend Justin to anyone facing criminal charges.

I am not at all pleased with services of lawyer Mary Richter (see website http://richter-law.ca),…read morewho was recommended by a banker then managing the wealth of aged parents following the sale of their Kitsilano home. He was recently downsized/retired rather sooner than he would have liked - probably for the best, in my view. Thanks for nothing. Ms. Richter was retained to update the wills - a fairly simple job as parents had no stock portfolios or other complicated holdings or second families to worry about - yet somehow an error was made identifying one beneficiary. Sloppy drafting - not that big a deal, right? However, rather than visit their care facility to own and correct her error, Ms. Richter summoned at her pleasure fragile, aged ps to her office, a huge, unnecessary inconvenience especially in view of Cadillac pricing of many hundred dollars an hour. Quaere whether parents may even have been billed for the time taken to correct the error. That was bad enough. More recently, ancient forebears asked Ms. Richter to inquire into the possibility of burial plots deceased father-in-law may have purchased for his wife and daughter at a local cemetery. A fairly simple matter, one would have thought, but Ms. Richter was disinclined to stir her lazy stumps. She didn't want the work even after ancients expressed willingness to pay to end the nagging uncertainty. Because burial plots today represent considerable real estate assets, we found this a most irksome, unsatisfactory response. Frankly, it cast doubt on Ms. Richter's efforts such that I have now suggested the file be referred to a competitor, someone who proofreads his work and considers the wishes and frailties of his clients, someone with a more enlightened approach and commitment to service. i wish parents could have paid an earnest law student instead to do the work at a fraction of the cost and inconvenience, but the Law Society of British Columbia won't allow even graduates to charge for services until they have: 1) articled a year with one of the only about three firms big enough to offer such positions, 2) re-completed law school from a six-week refresher make-work course and 3) passed a bar exam re-examining the already examined materials studied over three years at law school. Maverick young Ontario lawyers recently made a pitch to end such medieval nonsense as have some of their counterparts in the U.S. but lawyers so far maintain a tenacious grip on who can charge for services. The monopoly lawyers impose on us is nothing more than a determined effort to restrict trade in order to protect outrageous, utterly undeserved fees, which have in turn created an access to justice crisis just about everywhere. Nor does the lawyers' regulating body in ANY jurisdiction do much, if anything, to protect the public contrary to their lofty promises. Happily, the second machine age now very much upon us will soon replace these ancient, rusted has-beens with software that will do the work faster, better and cheaper. I also understand that one may contract for the drafting and litigation of a will with a freelancer at Elance, a virtual law office of some renown where clients are not expected to subsidize a high-end downtown or, in Ms. Richter's case, Kerrisdale rent.
