When l was 30, I couldn't speak Mandarin Chinese.
Now I'm 35, and I'm living my dream life and teaching others Chinese.
Traditional methods failed me. Self-education healed me.
Here's 8 tips that helped me get fluent:

What if I told you that you already have everything you need to learn any language fast in your head?
Youâre already good at languages. You just need to tweak your approach and build an environment that helps you learn instead of hurts you.
This is the simple three-step system I used to teach myself Mandarin Chinese in just one year without grinding vocabulary and burning myself out.

Has this ever happened to you:
You're learning a new language, and you feel overwhelmed with the number of vocabulary.
You feel lost because you don't know which learning material to focus on.
You keep forgetting what you learn and feel like you're not making any progress, even though you study a lot.
The problem is not your effort; it's the lack of focus.
Your brain is not designed for long-term retention without deliberate organization and reinforcement.
You need a system that quickly collects, organizes, and retrieves your resources and vocabulary so that you can focus on getting fluent.
This is how I was able to learn to speak Mandarin Chinese in one year. It's the same way that many language learners learned to speak their target language in record timeâby using a âSecond Brainâ.

The way you speak shapes the way people perceive you. Every word you say can either build trust, inspire action, or leave others confused.
Whether you're learning a new language or trying to improve your communication in your native language, speaking articulately helps you express yourself authentically, attract the right people, and achieve your goals.

You're with a group of native speakers, and you understand the main idea of what theyâre talking about, but you stay quiet and hope they don't ask you anything because you think youâll freeze and stumble over your words.
Sound familiar?
This happened to me all the time.
Why does this happen?
It often stems from some common myths about listening and speaking:
- You think you can improve your speaking the same way you improve your listening.
- You think learning a lot of vocabulary will help you speak better.
- You think that focusing on listening alone will translate to speaking fluently.
If you can understand but can't speak here's how to fix it:

Many language learners don't have time to learn because they try to add it to their life instead of integrating it.
Youâre squeezing a one-hour study block into an already packed schedule. Instead of immersing yourself throughout the day, you cram it in when you're already exhausted.
No wonder it feels draining. You save studying for when you're tired instead of doing it when your brain is fresh.
At first, learning feels exciting. Youâre passionate and motivated. But that passion fades. Studying turns into a chore. Progress slows. Repeating the same boring tasks makes you dread learning.
The truth is, your studies should fit into your lifeânot the other way around.

Many people feel stuck when learning a language.
They feel overwhelmed and demotivated. They canât seem to break free from procrastination. They wonder why they feel so lazy when they used to feel passionate about learning.
They think theyâre not âsmart enoughâ for this, or that other people are just ânaturally betterâ at learning languages.
They think, âIâve already messed up this week, so whatâs the point?â
They lack clarity on what to do, so they repeat the same beginner lessons, memorizing vocabulary lists without application, and never really progressing.
So itâs no wonder they get frustrated when it feels like theyâve lost all their progress. Itâs no wonder they start to believe theyâre lazy and not cut out for this.
But hereâs the truth: You can use your laziness to learn languages faster.

Learning Chinese is fun and easy in the beginning.
But eventually reality sets in it's like we're learning on hard mode...
Life gets in the way. Work. Responsiblity.
We start comparing ourselves to others.
Self-doubt kicks in and we lose motivation and progress.
The cause?
Weâre falling for hidden traps.
Avoid these two types of traps that hurt your language learning progress:
1. Traps that bring you down
2. Traps that get you high
I explain how to fix these in detail here:

The best language learning apps are not what you think.
There are two types of language learning apps.
Type 1 apps:
Try to teach your target language with curated material.
Type 1 apps are like learning to ride a bike in VR.
Fun for beginners or casual learners who want to taste the language.
Type 2 apps:
Facilitate learning by giving you tools to help you consume native material.
Type 2 apps are like training wheels for your bike.
This is where the real fun begins: the sore bum, bruises, and wind through the hair.
You want to move to training wheels as quick as you can.
(so you can take them off).
What are your favorite language learning apps?

When I first travelled to Taiwan I hated reading Chinese. Everything seemed so hard to understand.
But being illiterate was severely holding me back. So I did this and my Mandarin skyrocketed.
I especially hated reading signs that used weird grammar and formal abbreviations.
I thought I could just learn how to speak without learning how to read.
Unfortunately, that was not working.
So I started taking pictures of everything (signs & billboards and menus, etc), and I would study them at home one by one.
Slowly but surely my overall reading comprehension and confidence improved significantly.
Now I can read real native Chinese content like street signs and posters and menus with much more ease.
Unfortunately not everyone is lucky to be exposed to a Mandarin-speaking environment.
Thats why I'm going to share & break down real examples of Chinese material every week to help you level up your Chinese.
