Oh Chinese....

Don't get frustrated when learning Chinese. Just start somewhere and work from there. A journey begins with a single step. I took me forever just to learn how to count from 1 to 10...hahaha...like 5 months...it will come...I promise! Just try to be patient. Don't be afraid to speak in Chinese. I cannot wait until I can say more and more! GO GET EM!

OMG Tone Listening Practice

This was like a ray of light in my tone struggles. Beautiful! Just beautiful!

Chinese Colors

I have found a site to help you learn your Chinese colors. It is interactive. You press on the color circle and you not only hear the characters, but you see the pinyin and the Chinese characters.
