Laowai Chinese 老外中文

About

This Site

If you’re a “lǎowài” 老外 (Chinese for “foreigner”) and you want to learn to speak “zhōngwén” 中文 (Chinese for “Chinese”), maybe this stuff can help.

But, if coming to this site to check for updates is “tài máfan” 太麻烦 (”too much trouble”), you might prefer to receive email updates or subscribe via RSS.

Me

I started studying Chinese auto-didactically in July of 2005 and thought I’d share what I’ve learned so far. I’m currently in my 3rd year in China teaching English at Guangdong Peizheng College in Guangzhou.

I’ve also just completed the manuscript for a book about how to learn Chinese without a formal classroom environment. Please check back on this site or subscribe via email or RSS for updates on its publication.
