On 5 Jul, TikTok user varsh_0 uploaded a video of her Chinese oral examination and how it went. The video starts with her teacher greeting her with a hello, to which she replies quickly.
The teacher then asked for OP’s name. She confidently stated her name in Chinese and started reciting her script.

No harm in treating students with better care
Learning to master a new language can be daunting, so every step should be celebrated.
We may never know why this teacher had a harsh tone at the start of the examination. Perhaps she was stressed out.
Even so, better care could’ve been given as the experience of taking an oral examination is generally daunting for students.
