I almost tell all my UA-cam subscribers to check out your page..cos spending time with Yangyang videos i was able to speak Chinese within 3 months...You can check page to testify!!Hoping to meet you in person someday Yangyang
First time watching the intermediate conversational Chinese and I was surprised of how well structured it is. I feel I'm learning a lot by watching this video. Just a note, not get too stuck in only watching basic videos, don't be afraid of watch intermediate levels and go for it.
Great comment! Don't be afraid to push ahead. If you are going through the courses on the website, they will build up your skills in the right sequence, and guide you to fluency. 加油 (jiā yóu)! 😊

Bob Loblaw This site is amazing. I have taught all levels of English and Spanish and I recognize that her teaching skills and organization are excellent. You will be amazed by how much information will stick.
I love these videos, thanks yangyang! I watched the one about western and chinese medicine yesterday too, i like the show progress style of interview no subtittle, interview with subtitles then breaking it down and taking a look at the meaning slowly. very helpful :)
Thank you for the positive feedback... I really appreciate it! When you are learning Chinese, it's so important to have structured curriculum and clear explanations of everything you are learning.

You’ve got nothing to lose, so start here with Lesson 1: goo.gl/JTGNNs
I'm Polish and I just watched 'easy polish' for fun and they were asking same question. It's funny to see that we are all alike. Everybody just wants to buy a house. We live on this planet and we have to work our asses off to have a warm place for ourselves. This is crazy. Everybody deserves a house.

I really like listening to the authentic Chinese conversations, they're very interesting and useful so thank you very much. Unfortunately I find that there is way WAY too much English used in the explanation. As an English teacher living in China I have learned that studying a language through translation is highly ineffective. It is better to use different stimuli in conjunction with the target language rather than mixing two languages together in teaching. A little English would be okay, but in this case there is more English spoken throughout the video than Chinese!
I am currently halfway through your beginning conversation class. It is a great program. This intermediate lesson is one of many I look forward to as I finish beginning Chinese. This lesson reminds me of a lesson I used to have to teach to my advances Spanish grammar students and my advanced English grammar students. How is the differentiation between "If I have time, I will cook" and "If I had time, I would cook", and "If I had had time, I would have cooked." It is that condition 1, 2, and 3 situation. Is there something directly related to this in Chinese? Is this something for a much more advanced lesson? If so, I will patiently wait until I run into this. 謝謝
Martin Hodge Thank you for the compliment. And good question! We start to address tenses on Lesson 83 of the Beginner Conversational Course. I think you'll find that the way to indicate past, present, and future is much more simple in Chinese than it is in Romantic languages. Have fun! :)
如果我有一百万的话我做生意。。。hey yang yang! i love loveee your video lessons! they've been a very useful guide! 我叫埃塔是尼日利亚人，今年我也想开我自己的学汉语的网站 so watch out for me！ hihi！！！
Thank you for many great lessons. I have one question about Huì. Im my chinese class, I learned that Huì can be used for skills as in I can swim. Does this mean that Huì can express promise and prediction as well? And how can I distinguish those 3 situations?
A common myth is that you need a lot of time to study Mandarin. The truth is, there is only so much you can learn each day! But when you study every single day - even for just 15 minutes - that regular practice gradually trains your brain. It's just like learning an instrument: if you can spend just a few minutes a day practicing, you are guaranteed to improve. In 6 months you'll be amazed how far you can progress. Instead of waiting for a time in your life when somehow you have a lot of free time, make a small commitment to watching a lesson a day, or listening to an audio review, or just going through your "Up for Review" flashcards. It doesn't take long, and the ability to speak and understand Mandarin is priceless!
Honestly, if I had a million USD, I'd take my family for a complete trip through Asia. My older son and daughter love all things Japanese, but they are Korean. Myself, I'm European, but I'm fascinated with all things Chinese. I'd take us on the full tour. I might even try to settle in a nice area of Southern China.
I would pay my student loans and travel around the world. Maybe move to China, start a family. You can't make me dream of getting a million dollars, Yangyang :p I get so sad when I look at my bank account. :D
can i say wo hen xihuan ni de fangfa jiao(to teach). ni shi zui laoshi.i mean i wanna say i like your method of teaching.you are best teacher.sweety is this right?
I think the Chinese name for BMW 宝马 came from the English nickname "Beamer" (this is what we call BMW's all the time in Australia). Then they chose characters with that sound that also had a nice meaning (my precious horse) :)
Hello Yangyang! I have a question: At 6:50 in the video, it is written "我就不去上班了”, but why did you say "去"(which means "to go") if "上班" already means "GO to work"? Thank you!
+Motavi 上班 doesn't mean exactly "go to work" but "to work" more precisely. It's like "上课" which means "to have class". So for stopping working and having class you have "下班" and "下课" respectively.
Hi Yangyang I notice that one is yī (1st tone) and yet 1,000 is yì qiān (4th tone) and ten thousand is yí wàn (2nd tone). So the tone changes according to the tone following it, right?
I would build a charity housing complex for the homeless in China. I would provide them with free medical and dental care. I would develop an online/television series to teach seniors Chinese language to improve on the literacy problems in older Chinese. I would have a soup kitchen to give free nutritious food to the homeless.
Yang yang xiaojie zui piaoliang ye zui congming de zhongwen laoshi. I mean ms yang yang is the most beautifu and also the smartest chinese teacher. Am i right ?.

or buy their mother a new stove, or put a better well in their village, or get hepatitis vaccines for their extended family, or pay for pre-natal care for their pregnant sister, or put air conditioning in the village school, fuck, sometimes I am embarrassed of my relationship with China and marvel at their direction.
i would invest it in making more money like my app ideas so i could have money always coming in and i would help people that want to help them selves and others and not want to keep getting hand outs like i would help my friends and family get out of debt and some time i would like to help people in other countries. I would like to help them by giving them the resources to make theyer own living. You may have herd the saying you can give a man a fish and feed him for a day or you can teach him to fish and feed him for life well what im getting at is close to the saying but the people for the most part already know what to do they just dont have the tools,seed or resources because they are to poor to get them and thats where i think my way of thinking will help more people dont get me wrong i think its great people donate millions of dollers to help feed starving people but i think we can do better and give them the stuff that thay need to do it them selves i mean if you just give them food its a never ending cycle you will have to just keep giving them food so why not give them the things thay need to do it them selves and then thay can go on to helping each other and others. Just simply giving food away dosnt exactly keep them from possible starvation it just keeps them from starving for just a little longer.

due to lack of time I am unable to continue with this great opportunity of easy learning from your great lessons.

Hi the lesson is great & you look hen piaoling in this lesson specially, keep it up xiexie. Feichang hao!
Hi Yangyang
I notice that one is yī (1st tone) and yet 1,000 is yì qiān (4th tone) and ten thousand is yí wàn (2nd tone).
So the tone changes according to the tone following it, right?
I think there's a google hangaout where YangYang explains tone change rules, that only occur with two third tones, 不 (bù) and 一 (yī)
MRKLBS Thanks. Yes, I think I saw that, too. I'll have to do a bit of revision! 谢谢
不客气
Yang, you are awesome.
What a great video!
