On an earlier episode of #TalkingPoint on mother tongue education in Singapore (https://youtu.be/k7k-YLOwJQ0), singer-songwriter Benjamin Kheng lamented about his struggle with trying to sing in Chinese. In this follow-up, presenter Steven Chia ropes in singer-songwriter JJ Lin (also, like Steven and Ben, an Anglo-Chinese School (ACS) alumni) to help out with some tips.
JJ speaks about his early years debuting in Taiwan when he struggled with Mandarin and had to almost “learn the whole language again” - and shares some tricks and tips.
