LanguageEase is a unique system to learn and practice conversational Mandarin Chinese. Its half-hour lessons are designed to be both efficient and fun. It’s a convenient way to learn the most important Mandarin words and phrases for your trip to China.

You’ll practice face-to-face on-screen with native Mandarin speakers, while you are guided by the on-screen graphics in English. Each lesson focuses on phrases you’ll need in specific situations, like hotels, restaurants, or business meetings, with a focus on simple and essential words and phrases.

A carefully constructed coaching session

Chinese is very different from English, so LanguageEase takes you through the unique intonations and “melodies” with face-to-face coaching sessions. Your video tutors will prompt you to speak with call-and-response patterns designed to help you learn and practice through “spaced repetition.”

When you see the colorful animated cues, it’s your turn to speak. Your video coaches will give you time to practice each new phrase, and challenge you to answer questions and even form new phrases.

The lessons are designed to be gradual and patient, so you have the time to take it all in!

After the first lesson, you’ll already be speaking some useful Mandarin Chinese. Watch all eight and you’ll know hundreds of words and phrases. Most importantly, you’ll know the unique “4-tone” intonation for each word – which is the key to being understood when you speak.

With LanguageEase, you’ll also learn the “Pinyin” writing system and other skills you’ll need to read and correctly pronounce the Chinese words in your travel phrasebooks. Further empowering you when you’re traveling in China on business or vacation.
