Author Description

Do you want to learn Chinese but afraid that it might be too hard? Do you want to start learning the language but don't know where to start? Do you want to learn it the right way? Well, if the answer is yes, then this book is perfectly for you. As a Chinese teacher for over 14 years, I've taught many foreign students who either studied with me in China in person or via video calls. From my teaching experience, I've got some very helpful findings that can help you a lot. For instance, as for the 4 tones, don't let it scary you, because it is just part of a word and should be treated that way. From the perspective of grammar, Chinese actually is much easier than English. Chinese verbs don't have complicated conjugations. In English, the verb "eat" has various forms: "ate", "be eating", "have/has eaten"...; while in Chinese, the verb "chī" (eat) stays the same, and verbs do not change like that in English. If you follow my teaching, I can show you the most natural and effective way to learn the language. Before you know it, you will be speaking Chinese clearly. I did a lot of thinking about the take-for-granted-things for native speakers and try to use my own innovative explanations to give my student the best help. Thank you for choosing my course!
