I also did this. After 6 months I began to form my thoughts in Chinese and restrict any other language. Any important word I would encounter during the day(in my native language) would immediately look up the Chinese definition. Learned very fast.
Don't feel discouraged! Everyone will learn in their own time. This is a young man going to med school so we should assume he is pretty intelligent. He also sounds like he did a lot of learning during lock downs and has many Chinese friends which is fantastic for him but other people might not be as fortunate. You can be this level one day too, don't give up!
I have exactly the same feeling when watching this guy 😂 Both motivated and depressed at the same time, haha! He did amazing job no doubt. The only thing comforting me is that maybe putting so much emphasis on practical knowledge have hindered writing/reading skills. 🤔
@@mihokapro3226 im totally opposite of you as a native Chinese speaker im struggling to english right now and i found out is hard when translation from chinese to english there is many words of meaning just like what WILL said you must have native speaker friend in order to improve your learning languages but my surrounding areas dont have such a person who know how to speak fluent English or native.. don't afraid to speak learning languages but that's only show Infront of friends what if stranger talk to me can i speak with confident without any mistake im pretty sure thats not going to work because subconscious would told you their definitely laughing for grammar or wrong vocabulary
Still getting over the fact he can speak that well after just 18 months. I don't think I could l learn any language, let alone one as hard as Mandarin, in such a short time.
I think it just shows the possibility of how "fast" an English native speaker who got good resources, tools, methods, and people (plus time which might be so limited for most people) could master Mandarin Chinese! But everyone has their own path to enjoy the journey of learning a language😊
In all fairness, unless we speak Chinese, we don't know how good he is. We just get a feeling that he is fluent, because there are not a lot of pauses in his speech and with Rita's praise it also influences our perception of his fluency. I wouldn't compare your abilities to his. We all have different advantages and disadvantages. Find out what your advantages are and exploit them.
Rita, I would love to see more programmes about Chinese rap and hip-hop. I liked very much the one you once made, but you promised more. Or perhaps rap is already forbidden in China as a decadent, Western music ?
Hey thanks for your reminder haha! I think it's time to make another edition for Chinese rap breakdown! And rap is def not banned in China, as there are some huge rap-centric shows coming up😄🙌

Is is depressing how he can speak and respond so quickly and I’ve been trying to learn so much longer. My brain is like a sieve!

@@rcm.3260great point !!
I love how u add the grammar points or vocab on the top of the page for us to actually take notes and learn something!
I’m so inspired. I can’t have any excuses to be like him!

@@RitaChinese I still think it's unlikely that I could reach that level even with the same free time as he had. Or maybe I'm just a pessimist...

感谢 范老师 和 Will 同学 分享好内容。对于所有学习中文的小伙伴们非常有帮助！
An excellent example of what can be accomplished if you put the time, 4 hours a day studying, and effort in learning any language. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much for this video Rita and Will Hart
直接=straight away, right away, (let's go straight home). This guy's methodology is brilliant.
Will 真说得太棒了。我根本不相信他只1.5 年学中文了！从这个采访我学会了好多新词汇。我认为当外国人看到另外一个外国人说中文可以帮你抓住核心词汇而且能够模仿怎么很灵活地使用核心词汇！
真棒！看起来你的中文也说得很好👏😄
@@RitaChinese 就如中国阿姨们一直都跟我说的，“能交流就可以了!" haha
RITA I LOVE YOU
This is very inspiring 谢谢老师！Hope I can be as fluent as Will soon enough 嘿嘿
So impressive! I am inspired!
his Chinese is insanely good if he learned it for that period of time
In 1 year iam just merely HSK 2 level.
How he can speak fluently in such a short time??
How much time did you spent learning (in a week)?
Yes yes yes! Another video!
Please make content like this🙏🙏
Will do! I reached out to some people whose learning experience can be super helpful for other Mandarin learners!
Does anyone have the link to Will's channel? Please!!

我觉得他说得很有道理，在学习中文的过程中，我早也有同样的发现。我的了解是，经常靠翻译只说明你的词汇量不够大，你想不出合适的说法，只能去翻译一下。
Amazing how Dashan just fled back home to Canada, and is keeping his mouth shut!
hha 马嫂
至于吗。。。。英文
As if!
这是老马的老婆吧？
I actually like his Chinese better than her.
长得跟马嫂很像
就是呀嘿嘿
老师是不是写错了，字幕版（明年不是2023年吗？）
这是采访是去年（2021年）做的，所以这里说的“明年”就是2022年😊
@@RitaChinese 哦！原来如此哈！
