How long to learn Chinese in Shanghai ?
Hi, i’m Australian and i’m planning to go to Shanghai, I know some Chinese but not enough to speak it properly… How long would it take me to be able to speak it “ok” ?
Practice makes perfect.
If you practise with native Chinese every day, you can achieve a lot in not a long time.
If you don’t mind learning online (without time and place limitation), I can share with you a website to get one-on-one native Chinese tutor, http://www.chinesehour.com/.
If you are used to learning by yourself, at your own pace, you can also benefit at this website, there is FREE access to 200-hour 200-hour online multimedia course, You can practise pronunciation, grammar, reading and writing in each lesson. Detail information is at http://www.chinesehour.com/course/how-it-works/ .
