I really appreciate your emphasis on listening to natives a lot right from the beginning. I think this is easy to neglect when we don't understand at first, but acquiring the sound system is so important. It's not something we can show off to impress anyone, but it lays the foundation for future progress. At the most basic level, a language just IS sound (+ meaning/context).
I never thought of it like that, language is sound plus meaning and context, totally agree, I think getting familiar with the sounds early is so important, I couldn't believe that it actually worked and I started to understand more and more after a while of consistent listening.
I myself is half Chinese but never got the chance to learn it, and my grandparents and I always have this language barrier when we want to call. Appreciate your tips, thanks a bunch!!
Man you must have spent a long time on this one! This is such a nice comprehensive collection of tips and resources, every language learner should watch this!! 💯💯💯
I don't have a specific motivation to learn Mandarin/Chinese i just like how the language sounds, and unfortunately I'm an extremely lazy person, but i intend to start to learn Mandarin later this year, I’m still learning English so it'll be probably exhausting but let's go.
I want to learn Chinese to be able to communicate with my boyfriend's parents in their native language! We usually speak in English, but I'm going to China with them for two months this summer and I'm hoping to be able to learn something before that and while I'm there. They jokingly keep asking when I'm going to start learning some Chinese, so I want to surprise them eventually, hopefully in a few years, with some proficiency! I tend to give up super easily when it comes to languages I'm not fully immersed in, so hopefully this is an amazing chance to challenge myself and my commitment! Thank you so much for the tips, it was an amazing video!
我建議你可以跟其他人用中文溝通或是用聽歌的方式 且我也是用這樣的方式學英文 所以這裡可能會有一些奇怪的英文 最後我也希望你可以告訴我 哪裡有錯誤 謝謝 順帶一題我來自台灣 I suggest you can say Chinese with any others and listen music, and i'm also using the way to learn English for a year , so here might has some strange English. then i wish you can tell me where is wrong if it have, thank you. btw i from Taiwan
I discovered Richard 老师 channel and yours yesterday. After binge-watching some of your videos, I'm gonna implement your podcast and mind map tips. 谢谢你! 我也是加拿大人, 我是蒙特利尔人。
Wow such an in depth video with sooooo much contents!!! Much appreciated your hard work and wow you are so encouraging man! It's amazing how you can even make all mandarin videos, truly amazing 😯😯😯!!! I wish I can do that one day!!!
Thanks for the video and all the tips! Unrelated but could you please share the locations of the basketball courts (around 20:30) ? You've gained a new subscriber!
I really appreciate your tips!(這很像練習中文的武功密笈) Your experiences of learning Chinese also inspired me a lot! I will start my Japanese learning journey! Cheers
I'm a huge fan of Pleco! Awesome to see you using so proficiently. Thanks again for your videos. It helps to know other Canadians really trying their best to learn Mandarin. These tips are profound! Hopefully I'll get to be in Taiwan before 25!

sorry I missed your message! I hope you get to see Taiwan too, its a beautiful place, and you're still so young, plenty of time :)
Can you recommend any textbook for self learning for a total beginner, please.
I love Pimsleur but the only problem is that it’s expensive. I wish there was an alternative
I am learning Chineses Mandarim for fun too. I want to be in touch with their culture. Zaíjiàn my friend.
Wô shi Zhōnggóu xuésheng
bookmark 20:15
learning 2nd language... NO FLEX but chinese gonna be my 6th
Definitely don't want to chase a 👧 gurl 😂
But want to understand the language.
It is flabbergasting how good a student you are. I managed nearly 3 months at shi da then quit!
Haha I quit all the time too, or at least lose motivation, you can always come back into the game
So... this was posted two YEARS ago and the title shows the current year ... that's hardly honest.
👌 Promo'SM!!
2 years yeah right
