    About this ebook

    "Mandarin Chinese The Right Way" books are considered to be the the most effective way of learning all aspects of the Chinese language.

    In "Basic Chinese For Beginners! Your Second Mandarin Book", begin to learn to speak, read, write and type Mandarin Chinese all at the same time while understanding the grammatical structure of the language.

    After studying Mandarin Chinese in China and Taiwan for over fifteen years, it occurred to me that there is no easy way to learn the language. However, there is a right and wrong way of learning Chinese.

    Most people give up trying to learn Mandarin Chinese after one month. Many people don’t go further than a beginner’s level. This is because they don’t bother learning the grammatical structure of Chinese and therefore will never be able to fluently converse.
    The wrong way is to learn common phrases and hope that you can collect enough to “pick-up” the language. Unfortunately, most Chinese programs will teach you this way. I tried this and became frustrated because progress was extremely slow.

    The right way is to learn pronunciation, speaking, reading, writing and grammar at the same time, while thoroughly learning a particular topic.
    In "Basic Mandarin Chinese For Beginners! Your Second Mandarin Book" you’ll be learning the absolute best way to begin mastering Mandarin Chinese. By combining all aspects of the language, you will quickly become a fluent speaker, an excellent listener, a strong reader and a beautiful writer of Mandarin Chinese.

    The most important thing about learning Mandarin Chinese is to be patient, be diligent and above all, have fun.
    Trust in the learning process that this book provides and you will master Mandarin Chinese sooner than you think.
