9 Attractive Models Who Teach Mandarin
Rosetta Stone isn’t the only way to learn a new language. You can actually hire a model to teach you, should you decide to learn Mandarin. (Mandarin is known as one of the most difficult languages to learn in the world.) Prospective teachers are required to submit a full-body photo as well as their experience in teaching and modeling. The creator of this unique language school, Kaoru Kikuchi, feels that going the traditional route to learn Mandarin is intimidating.[2] Alternatively, teaching Mandarin through short, sexy clips gives a different perspective. The course is conducted in a series of online videos that allow you to compete with other students. Many who’ve reviewed the course feel that the videos featuring young, lingerie-clad women makes Mandarin memorable. You can only expect to learn two or three words per video, leading some to speculate that the language course is not of the same quality as similar courses.

Cuddle Party is exactly what it sounds like. The company was developed on the basis that human beings need affection and far too often go without it. The service promotes the health benefits of being touched. For example, touch benefits the central nervous system. According to The Cuddle Party company, cuddle parties serve another function by helping people establish boundaries and learn the communication skills necessary for cuddling.[8] Since cuddling is a skill, every cuddle party is led by a certified and trained cuddle party facilitator.
