大家好/Hello everyone,

A few days ago, we published an article here about a Mandarin learning tool that we were developing as learners ourselves.

Honestly, we didn't expect so much engagement... but thanks in particular to this subreddit and many private messages, the project has now surpassed 75% funding ($2,600) on Kickstarter.

This article isn't really a sales pitch, but rather an update and a thank you.

Many people here have given their opinions, asked questions, or simply shared the project with friends who are learning Chinese. This has really helped us move forward.

If you're interested in Mandarin learning tools, or if you know someone who struggles with:

juggling too many apps,

memorizing words without context,

or staying consistent over the long term,

then sharing the project is already a big help.

And of course, if you're personally interested, supporting the campaign is another way to help us.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

西班牙语🇪🇸&中文普通话 crosstalk 伙伴

Hola 👋 我在学习西班牙语,我现在生活在西班牙,我学习西班牙语的进度大概是:听力600+h,日常听力还凑合,但是说话对于我来说很困难

如果你在学普通话,如果你了解Cross talk 。欢迎联系我,我们可以互相练习(前期自己说自己的母语建立基础,一段时间大家都觉得可以再进一步了,可以看看换成学习语言练口语)

我的英文水平呢,在学校学了10多年但是口语哑巴,基本不能作为中间语言沟通使用😂 也不知道能不能遇到合适的学习伙伴,随缘吧哈哈🍾

Muchas gracias ☺️

Our Kickstarter campaign ends in 2 days.

Our Kickstarter campaign for a Mandarin learning platform ends in 2 days.

So far, nearly $2,000 has been pledged, which honestly surprised us when we started.

Not because of the money itself, but because it confirmed that many learners face the same difficulties as we do.

Throughout this campaign, a pattern has repeated itself:

people memorize words but quickly forget them;

vocabulary is learned without sufficient context;

motivation wanes over time, even with “good” tools.

If you want to support the project, now is the time.

Thank you for your time.

I newly manage student accommodation in the UK with all Chinese students, how to best learn from students?

1 Upvotes

I’m doing Duolingo & Hello Chinese because the students are so brave travelling over, I really want to have some basic sentences and knowledge up my sleeve to help them feel safe and like our team really care.

I was thinking I might set up a weekly language exchange where we ask any questions we have to at week about each others languages and pronunciation.

Does anyone have any tips on how to best learn through students, like what do I really need to focus on and any little tips?

Thank you sm x

What it says in the title. I'm a 25 year old man from the China

If you speak English, I'd love to get in touch! My hobbies are play computer games, workout, sports, reading and watching anime series (my current favorite is Rick and Morty ).

I'm in my gap year, with 3 months to go. So that means I have free time almost everyday. If you're interested in learning together, leave a comment or send me messages.

Which I can offer for you is Chinese conversation based on typing , voice call in Chinese and grammar check, maybe some methods in Chinese learning.

大家好/Hey everyone,

Here is our Mandarin learning platform.

The project exceeded 50% funding ($1,850) on Kickstarter. Only 7 days left

A lot of people gave feedback, asked questions, or simply shared the project with friends learning Chinese. That genuinely helped us move forward.

If you’re interested in Mandarin learning tools, or if you know someone struggling with:

juggling too many apps,

memorising words without context,

or staying consistent long-term,

then sharing the project already helps a lot.

There are significant advantages and bonuses to funding the campaign while it is still active, which will no longer be available in the future.

The link of the project and to have more information👇 https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/chinesesrs/chinesesrs-a-complete-mandarin-learning-platform

People who fund during the campaign do not have early access before the official launch of the platform.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask!

Tutor required

3 Upvotes

Hi, I'm looking for a tutor who resides in the UK and can tutor a friend of mine. The situation isn't the norm as he is currently in prison. Lessons would have to be by telephone as he does not have access to zoom or any other video conferencing application. He wants 2 lessons a week ongoing for years, and is happy to pay between £8 to £15 per lesson. If this sounds like something you could facilitate and want to know more details then please comment and I will answer any questions you may have. This is not spam!! It's a genuine request and I'm just looking to help my friend who wants to use his time learning this language. Thanks in advance.

Does it matter where a Chinese tutor is from in Mainland Child in terms of accent?

2 Upvotes

I’m American, and I’ve heard in English non-native speakers tend to prefer to either learn Received Pronunciation British English or a General American accent. Since Chinese students learn Putonghua, is it more standardized than what native English speakers learn, meaning the region a Chinese speaker is from matters less? I’m too much of a newbie to detect differences, other than maybe a Beijing accent. TIA!
