How to Learn Chinese Online in 15 Minutes A Day

Podcasts are so awsome and have taken language learning to a whole new level! Do a quick search for podcasts that teach Chinese. Most are short; ten to twelve minutes. You can listen to them at the computer or if you have an iPod or MP3 player, while cooking dinner or driving to work-nearly anywhere.

There are any number of Chinese language learning programs that can help you succeed in 15 minutes a day.
Look for one that teaches you real, conversational Chinese which you will be able to use with someone.

A good course will have audio, video, text and interactive learning modules to help you with your listening, reading and speaking. There should be units on shopping, eating, transportation, recreation, and traveling among other topics. You'll find that these are most useful in your daily life.

Also be on the look for some cultural insights that are offered throughout the course, either in your learning or just as a side note. They will help to make the language more a part of you.
