    This is exactly what I have been looking for! I am Chinese and speak Cantonese. My parents wanted me to learn Mandarin as a child but like all children, I was pugnacious so did not. I regret not learning Mandarin when I had the chance but it is never too late. This podcast is amazing and so helpful. I do the weekly lessons until I master the lesson and vocabulary before moving on. Make sure to do the bonus homework lessons as well. Please keep this podcast going and let us know how to support.

  • Can’t say enough about this podcast

    I haven’t found any other podcast quite like this one. Isaac’s language learning wisdom makes so much sense, and I learn so much from the dialogues. I can’t recommend it enough if you want to have a blast learning mandarin.

  • Step change

    Listening to this pod cast has really helped my Mandarin improve and helped me hold practical day to day conversations in China.

    I also really appreciate the insights provided regarding learning languages in general as an adult.

  • Loved and still love it.

    This podcast is well done. The author engages with his listeners. His encouragement has helped me to continue to learn Mandarin, when I feel discouraged, I am reminded by what he says "It's a marathon and not a sprint."
