Leon Lin (13 years old Chinese immigrant) is able to speak and listen because of growing up in a Chinese speaking environment. However, he was unable to read and write. After learning Chinese written language via the word root system (Chinese Etymology) for only seven days, he is able to write simple Chinese words after glancing at a word for only ten seconds. In the photos below, he is speaking and demonstrating his learning experience.
