  I´ve just heard your first episode and I think you did a great podcast and quite easy for first-timers as I am. I´m quite fan of language podcast (I´m subscribed to english, french and japanese podcasts) so I´ve met with a lot of different types of teaching and I can assure you that your way of teaching is quite satisfactory! So congratulations with your learnchinesepod and don´t give up! Best regards

  Hi I just moved to Shanghai and I want to thank you for your easy way of helping me learn the basics of chinese in my own time.

  Hi Yao,
  I just listened to the first episode and I love it! You make it so much easier to learn Mandarin! I love language podcasts and am currently learning Chinese, Italian and French. I tried to download the scripts for lesson one but was unable to.
  When will they become available?

  Thanks!

  Hi Yao

  I am excited to get started learning. I will be visiting China this fall for the 1st time. It looks like the link to the 1st lesson is still broken. All the rest were fine.

  These podcasts are great. Yao’s teaching style is very helpful when paired with Kevin’s American dialect. I love the one-on-one interchange. Wo shi xuesheng!

  This is so great! I was trying to decide between trying Japanese and Chinese, and your simple podcasts gave me the confidence to try Chinese!

  Can’t wait to hear all of them.

  Hi Yao,

  I found this easy to follow, and nicely paced for a complete bginner like me — thanks so much for making this available.

  Yao, these podcasts are outstanding! Thanks very much!

  The pace is just right.

  It would be good to have a revision lesson after, say, the first ten sessions to refresh everything and bring it all together (probably in a longer podcast).

  One tiny technical point - occasionally when you get enthusiastic the volume jumps up, and it can be slightly uncomfortable on the ear.

  I can only find 9 lessons on the site. Are more scheduled? I’d like to be able to download the next 50 and work through them while I’m travelling.

  Keep up the good work, and thanks again!

  Hi, thanks for the great podcasts you distribute. I’m a chinese oversea in Thailand. My grandparents left China and settled in Thailand about 60 years, so I was born in Thailand and cant speak Chinese at all. However, I really have a passion to learn this language. Now, I join the MBA program in USA and many of my classmates are Taiwanese; hopefully, i will surprise them with my chinese soon.

  Interesting podcast, Yao. I think learning a language through podcast or supplementing language learning with podcast is a really good idea since it\’s not boring.

  Some remarks on the lesson:
  - Kevin is just ruining the podcast. He\’d better follow the script instead of trying to invent something. He confuses ä½ å¥½ with ä½ å¥½å—Ž after 3 years of learning Chinese!
  - I was wondering what are the most useful words in Chinese or any other language. I think \

  Hello,

  I would like to say thank you so much for giving these free podcasts out. I am only a beginner at Chinese, but I am eager to learn. I look forward to listening to the rest of your podcasts, and can’t wait to practice what I learn with some of my friends

  Thank you once again.
