Hacking Chinese: A Practical Guide to Learning Mandarin
Product Description
Learning Chinese can be frustrating and difficult, partly because it's very different from European languages. Following a teacher, textbook or language course is not enough. They show you the characters, words and grammar you need to become proficient in Chinese, but they don't teach you how to learn them!
Regardless of what program you're in (if any), you need to take responsibility for your own learning. If you don't, you will miss many important things that aren't included in the course you're taking.
If you study on your own, you need to be even more aware of what you need to do, what you're doing at the moment and the difference between them.
Here are some of the questions I have asked and have since been asked many times by students:
How do I learn characters efficiently?
How do I get the most out of my course or teacher?
Which are the best learning tools and resources?
How can I become fluent in Mandarin?
How can I improve my pronunciation?
How do I learn successfully on my own?
How can I motivate myself to study more?
How can I fit learning Chinese into a busy schedule?
