All Work and No Chinese???

Here’s a quick post. I’ve been on vacation since December 18. Now, it’s back to usual and I’m getting back into the swing of things.

Slow Chinese Podcast

My goal with this exercise is to increase my listening comprehension and increase my ability to think in Chinese in real time.

Simulated Chinese Immersion

The longer you expose yourself to periods of total simulated immersion, the more powerful these methods are to becoming fluent in Chinese. If you can’t listen to Chinese throughout the day, then set aside “zones” or a set number of hours to focus on Chinese. When I’m at work, I have Chinese radio playing in the background in my office.
