Is it possible to efficiently learn Chinese (or any language) in a relatively short period of time - as short as six months? It turns out that it is possible if the language student is highly motivated, can allocate a reasonable amount of time to study AND follow the principles taught by Chris Lonsdale, the author of Learn Any Language in Six Months and founder of Kungfu English. Chris' teaching on language learning is highly popular as evident by the more than 23 million views his TED talk got on YouTube. In this interview, Eileen gets Chris to talk about his experiences learning Chinese, Cantonese as well as explain his principles for learning any language - but explained in Chinese, of course! This is a great listening practice audio / video podcast for Chinese intermediates. The clear smartphone friendly subtitles also makes it easier for students to follow the conversation, learn new vocabulary and experience how native / fluent Chinese speakers engage in long, deep conversations.
