Finally, we have the first lesson of the year! I'm really proud to say that after almost three months, a group of six whalers has consolidated as regular attendants to the Mandarin Chinese Course :) I want to thank @chrstnv, @mirzantorres, @truelovemom, @sthephany, @krathos, and @a0i for your efforts and for your good vibe.
</p>

<p>
Since people are more interested in a more formal approach in order to learn as much as they can from the lessons, I have decided to change some things a little bit... we will start to have podcast lessons on the Discord Channel :) <b>The first Lesson will be held on Sunday (January 13th) 2:00 pm EST (3 pm Venezuelan Time)</b>. For those who can't attend the lesson, I will record it and will post the video later.
</p>

¡Finalmente! ¡Vamos con la primera clase del año! Estoy muy orgulloso de que luego de tres meses, un grupo de seis estudiantes se hayan consolidado como participantes regulares del curso de Mandarin :) Quiero agradecer a @chrstnv, @mirzantorres, @truelovemom, @sthephany, @krathos a @a0i por su esfuerzo y por su buena vibra.
</p>

<p>Debido a que los estudiantes están interesados en un enfoque más formal para poder aprender al máximo en cada lección, he decido cambiar un poco las cosas... vamos a empezar a tener lecciones podcast en el Canal de Discord :) <b>La primer lección será el Domingo 13 de Enero a las 2:00 pm EST (3 pm hora de Venezuela)</b>. Para aquellos que no puedan participar, grabaré la lección y publicaré el video luego :smile:

<center><h3>What about the Daily Writing Practives and the Reward Distribution?| ¿Qué pasa con las prácticas diarias de escritura y con las recompensas?</h3></center>
</p>

<div class="pull-left">
<p>I expect daily writing practices to be resumed sometime around Monday/Wednesday, there will be a little adjustment to the format of the lesson. Since I'm extremely happy with the performance of the students on the daily writing practice, the majority of the characteristics of the lessons will be the same.</p>

<p>
We will be sharing our budget with our friend @alcidescadiz and his Italian course! You should pay him a visit since he is hosting an amazing and funny Italian course. We will have 400 Midas for our Mandarin Course that will be distributed evenly among all participants. If we are lucky, our Chinese friends may drop by and we might have surprise events and surprise prizes as well.
</p>

<p>Remember that in order to be eligible for the rewards, participants should advertise whaleshares at least once a week... the advertising might be done however participants like. It might be using social media, inviting some personal friend, creating some artwork, and so on. 
</p>
</div>

<div class="pull-right">
<p>Yo espero que las prácticas diarias de escritura vuelvan entre el lunes y el miércoles, va a ver un pequeño ajuste en el formato de la lección. Pero como estoy etremadamente feliz por el desempeño de los estudiantes en las prácticas diarias de escritura, la mayoría de los elementos serán los mismos</p>

<p>Vamos a estar compartiendo nuestro presupuesto con nuestro amigo @alcidescadiz y su curso de italiano. Recomiendo que revisen el material de su curso ¡es realmente bueno! Distribuiremos equitativamente 400 Midas entre todos los que participen en nuestro curso. Si tenemos suerte, alguno de nuestros amigos chinos puede aparecer y tendríamos eventos y recompensas sorpresa.</p>

<p>Recuerden que para ser elegibles para las recompensas, los participantes deben hacerle publicidad a Whaleshares al menos una vez a la semana... la publicidad puede ser hecha como sea que deseen los participantes. A través de RRSS invitando amigos personales, haciendo un diseño, y así sucesivamente.
