Start to learn Mandarin from zero
In over a decade of teaching Mandarin as a foreign language at GoEast Mandarin, we’ve found that some students dive into learning this language with a lack of fundamental understanding of Mandarin. Sometimes this causes frustration or not understanding some rules, hinders progress, or the enjoyment of learning.
We want to use this introductionary course to help Chinese learners be better prepared for the journey of learning.
You will be a perfect candidate for this course if you:
- you are a beginner who started or plans to start learning Chinese.
- you are at a higher level but still interested in the listed topics.
To answer questions like:
- What is Mandarin? (VS Cantonese & Chinese?)
- How long does it take to learn Chinese?
- Do I have to learn characters？
- How to memorize new words?

- What are good resources?
- How to define a good teacher?
Benefits of this course:
