About
In this episode, we're kicking things off with a fun memory: do you remember the first Chinese word you ever learned? We'll be sharing some delightful stories from learners around the world. We'll also be diving into something a little deeper: what are your goals when learning Chinese? Whether it's a short-term goal like ordering your favorite bubble tea in perfect Mandarin, or a long-term dream like working in China or reading a novel in the original language—today we'll talk about how those goals shape our learning journey. On the show: Niu Honglin & Steve.
