I had tried once when my vessel was in Drydock in China. The maintenance engineer of the Drydock, a local Chinese, took me out for dinner in one of the famous restaurants. There he taught me how to use chopsticks. I don't say I'm very much proficient in using them, but I can eat other food items except rice. How about you?

@leny34 I know it's difficult, but with practice it can be managed.

I tried several time but never mastered it and I use a fork as it is so much easier for me.

@1hopefulman I find it easier to eat with a fork and spoon/knife.

Most Chinese food can be eaten with a fork instead of chopsticks, but some must be eaten with chopsticks, such as hot pot.

@pitstop It? took me several efforts to learn. But I'm not perfect and cannot eat rice with eat. Noodles are ok.

of course, and it is fun to use chopsticks. Here noodles are eaten with chopsticks.

I tried but fail to enjoy my meal using it. So, I ended up using spoon and fork

@m_audrey6788 Yes, those of us used to fork will surely not be comfortable with chopsticks.

As a chinese, using the chopstick is something that I often do and that I do it pretty well considering that I had been using it for almost my entire life.
