On line Mandarin/HSK/Chinese cultures/Chat in Auckland

Hi everybody, my name is Dean,I'am from China and I've been a Mandarin teacher around 9 years(of course I hold CTCSOL).Chinese has its own unique charm, it isn't so hard as you think.For instance, some one confused about Mandarin's tone, because it's not similar as other languages，but we can use the easier way which calls Numbers to learn, only use 12345 you can solve that.The easiest way to learn Chinese/Mandarin I think is use Chinese as much as possible, such as watching Chinese movies, chatting with Chinese friends and so on.If you could spend 3-5hours per week, I think you can speak Mandarin very soon.
