As an independent language learner, one of the most difficult aspects of studying a language is not necessarily the language itself. Rather, it’s figuring out just what to study in order to most efficiently improve your ability in the language you’re learning.
And that’s just what Judith offers readers with her latest book, “Fluent Chinese: The Complete Plan from Beginner to Advanced.”
About the Book
“Fluent Chinese” takes Chinese learners from the getting ready and starting from zero stages to attaining a tourist speaking level in the language and all the way through to fluency.
In each chapter you are given advice on how to study and what to study with a collection of resources to help you get started. She also offers challenges to help you use what you’ve learnt up to each point in the book. These challenges include things like going out to a Chinese restaurant to use the language.
The book also includes tips on what to do when you are feeling stuck or when you hit one of those dreaded learning plateaus.
Our Recommendation
Judith’s book is an excellent outline and study plan for those studying Chinese. The resources included as part of the guide are incredibly useful and the advice in the book is quite helpful for learners.
The tips in the guide are extremely straight forward and easy to follow. It is an excellent and thorough resource if you’re interested in learning Mandarin. Highly recommended.
