Mandarin Monkey Podcast

We talk with one of our new teachers SuSu Laoshi about growing up, learning languages, jumping in the deep end with learning something new, the emersion method, hobbies and interests, teaching styles and a whole bunch more. This episode HAS A LOT OF MANDARIN. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We’re Mandarin Monkey and we’re building the largest community of Mandarin learners in the world, so come join us! When we moved in together, one of us spoke English, the other Mandarin. Yes, it was a little crazy (call it love!) but in the process we discovered Chinglish as an intuitive way to learn Mandarin. Now, we’re bringing it to everyone who’s looking for a fun way to learn Mandarin! First, we’re the creators of the #1 Chinglish podcast in the world, The Mandarin Monkey podcast. Every episode includes real-world Mandarin conversation but uses both Chinese and English to help you improve your listening comprehension and boost your vocabulary. To learn Mandarin even faster, you can join our community of hundreds of fellow Mandarin Monkeys who are learning through games and real conversation practice where you decide the topics—never boring textbook dialogues!
