mike,
i’m very glad that you want to learn chinese. there is no doubt that to learn chinese well is by no means an easy thing, but i have some ideas that may help.
firstly, it is important to listen to the teacher carefully and take notes so that you can go over your lessons later. secondly, try to practise speaking chinese as much as possible out of class and write whatever you hear down to accumulate more words and expressions. don’t be afraid of making mistakes. and try to communicate with local people to develop listening skills. last but not least, you should organize your time well and do a lot of exercise. ks5u
i think the most important thing is that you should believe in yourself. i’m sure that you will succeed after your hard work.
yours,
li hua
