Mandarin Blueprint is the most ambitious online Chinese learning curriculum ever attempted. Not only because it integrates pronunciation, characters, vocabulary & grammar acquisition materials, but more importantly because it teaches how to relate everything you need to know about Chinese to your personal lived experience. Everything about your past is a potential connection you can make to Mandarin, and we're experts at helping you find them. Not to mention, Chinese is a super cool language! Once you get several characters under your belt, you're going to have a paradigm shift about language. Meaning is expressed using entirely different component parts, and we've only become more fascinated by it the deeper we've delved into it. Join Luke Neale & Phil Crimmins as we explore not only Chinese but how connecting Mandarin to our past lived experiences helped us learn in a fraction of the time.

202. A Homeschooler’s Experience of Mandarin Blueprint
Phil here. This week, I tackle the question that's on many language learners' minds - can you really become fully fluent in a new language? I explain why the answer is yes, as long as you prioritize the language by connecting it to your core values. I also discuss building confidence to speak to native speakers, as well as the role that mindset plays in language learning. While mindset is essential, the wrong method can still stymie your progress. I'll explain why. Tune in to this week's episode for more insights and inspiration on how to become fluent in a new language.

201. “I Need a Dictionary to Understand Myself!”
Luke here. In this week’s episode, we delve into the struggles and breakthroughs of learning Mandarin. It's natural to feel overwhelmed and discouraged at times, but we're here to guide you on how to appreciate the language through immersion. We've had students who have become so immersed that they have needed a dictionary to understand their own thoughts in Chinese. Consistent practice is key, and even just 30 minutes a day can make a significant difference. As a language learner myself with a busy life, I share my personal experiences on how to make language learning a priority.

200. Play the Understanding Game & Win Fluency
Phil here. In this week’s episode, I explore the idea of "playing to understand" when it comes to language acquisition. I believe that instead of focusing on memorization and knowledge about a language, we should adopt a more childlike attitude and focus on playing an understanding game to learn Chinese. By doing so, we can achieve real fluency and understand language patterns on a deeper level. I also emphasize that understanding does not equal memorization and that our brains are wired to extract patterns from languagess 🔴 Subscribe for more free Mandarin Chinese training: https://www.youtube.com/@MandarinBlueprint?sub_confirmation=1 _____________________________________ ✅ WATCH THESE NEXT Master THIS Emotion to Reach Fluency ▶▶ https://youtu.be/9ytfqwfFgAg TWO daily actions that will get you fluent▶▶https://youtu.be/yc5wf-ktb7I How To Develop An UNBREAKABLE Chinese Study Habit ▶ ▶ https://youtu.be/c_VzkF8GzbU _____________________________________ ✅ FREE RESOURCES What type of Chinese learner are you?

Mandarin Blueprint
Mandarin Blueprint is the most ambitious online Chinese learning curriculum ever attempted. Not only because it integrates pronunciation, characters, vocabulary & grammar acquisition materials, but more importantly because it teaches how to relate everything you need to know about Chinese to your personal lived experience. Everything about your past is a potential connection you can make to Mandarin, and we're experts at helping you find them. Not to mention, Chinese is a super cool language! Once you get several characters under your belt, you're going to have a paradigm shift about language. Meaning is expressed using entirely different component parts, and we've only become more fascinated by it the deeper we've delved into it. Join Luke Neale & Phil Crimmins as we explore not only Chinese but how connecting Mandarin to our past lived experiences helped us learn in a fraction of the time.
