Is Chinese hard to learn? This is always the first question i got when my students attend my class or ask me online. Well, i can tell you, definitely not! If you know the trick of learning Chinese in a proper way. Just like watching magic trick, you find it hard if you try it yourself, until the magician told you the secret, it would be easy.

Learning Chinese isn't hard at all, there's a few things you can do. First, find out the reasons why you should learn Chinese.

First, you need to know what category you want to be, I’ve divided learning Chinese into 3 category.

Category 1 – Beginner. If you just want to know a little bit about Chinese language, very basic conversation, and you won’t be using Chinese in your working environment. E.g. : Travelling.

Category 2 – Intermediate. You want to use Chinese Language as a verbal communications with your love one, family, and friends or even at work, but you won’t know how to read.

Category3 – Professional. You are doing business with Chinese in China, or you lived there and need to pick up the language ASAP, or you want to be a translator.

For Beginner, you can easily pick up free Chinese lessons from my website at http://www.learnchineseforfree.com/lessons.html , you can easily Learn Chinese For Free.
For Intermediate and Professional, I would recommend you to read the follow and some other articles in my site.

The fastest ways to learn Chinese, Speak Chinese are:-

We did a research and found out the best results would be as follow :-

  • 1. Study on board. Go China and sign up a 6 months course. You’ll basically learn how to speak Chinese, how to read Chinese, understand it and use them in a correct way. This is a costly method, 6 months including accommodation + course fees + air ticket.
  • 2. Buy a Chinese language software. There are lots of Chinese Language software that you can purchase online today, this software is great, especially if you are busy and unable to attend course, classes. But it’s quite limited unless you got some Chinese friends to practice with. Not that costly, most probably would be less than USD300. We did some reviews at http://www.learnchineseforfree.com/review.html so you can see which software we actually recommended.
  • 3. Attend Chinese classes. This will be a substitute of Choice No 1, except you are doing it at your own country. Go to China town and I believe you can find one easily. But in long run, this is costly, it might takes you years to complete. Some Chinese teachers are quite boring because they tend to repeat the same chapter again and again.

We still recommend either Choice 1, or 2. Faster and more guaranteed. Choice 3, hmmm, depending how good the Chinese teachers are, you can ask around those friends who’ve successfully learn Chinese, ask them to recommend you the place.

Good luck in learning Chinese!

Best wishes,
