Some FAQs 

1. Should I learn Mandarin or Cantonese?
This depends on your goal of study, where are you traveling to and who do you want to talk to. Mandarin is the language everyone speaks in Mainland China. Cantonese is used in Hong Kong and Guangzhou Province. There are many dialects in China, but Mandarin is the official language in China. The majority of Taiwanese also speaks Mandarin. 

2. How difficult is Mandarin for someone who is an absolute beginner like me?
Different people has different learning habits and speed. If you are a fast-learner, you can learn the language very fast. Mandarin may be hard to non-native speakers because: 
  • It is a tonal language, which means that each word has a tone. 
  • It has a completely different writing system (Chinese Characters). You cannot look at a character and figure out the reading by spelling it out like French or Spanish. So it is relatively harder, but there is something called Pinyin system, which is how each character sounds like using English alphabets.
  • Asian culture is very different from the West, so to learn the language, you also need to know something about the way people think. 

 We have a system for non-native adult speakers. We will study the language in Pinyin first and build the vocabulary, then we will slowly learn characters. 

3. How long does it take for me to be able to have a basic conversation skill?

The absolute Beginner level has 10 classes (each at 1.5 hour). So after 15 hours of learning, you should be able to have a general understanding of the language structure, describe your daily activities and talk about weather. 

4. What should I do outside the classroom?
After each lesson, you will receive homework. You will practice the vocabulary and grammar we learned in each lesson. If you want to do more, you can go to our blog and use the flashcards functions to study. If you have the opportunity to speak to some Mandarin-speaking friends to practice, that's even better. 


5. Should I buy some additional study materials? Where should I buy them?
You should buy a beginner's Chinese to English dictionary. You should install the Chinese typing system on your computer to practice pinyin and characters. Some people have success following self-language learning software, some students prefer face-to-face communication. So it all depends on your learning skill and what you prefer.
