On my opinion the best way to learn any language is to have constant speaking practice. In such case the best way is to find a tutor and native speakers. I can advise https://preply.com/en/london-UK/chinese-tutors for searching native speaking tutors. I've learnt Chinese using this website. All other methods you can use as aditional way to gain new knowledge and practice already completed material. But I'm looking for new methods to improve my skiils. Can you help me?
ReplyDeleteYep! I recommend apps like HiNative for asking native speakers any questions you have about language, as well as getting feedback on your pronunciation, and HelloTalk for connecting with native speakers for casual chatting and speaking practice. Chinese people on HelloTalk are DESPERATE for more English speakers to practice with hahaha but if you make your intentions to learn/practice Chinese clear, they're super nice. Lots of enthusiastic students and young people with a few teachers as well
